RayFinkle Posted August 24, 2006 Share Posted August 24, 2006 JEANETTE, Pa. -- A dispute in Westmoreland County is giving a new meaning to the term "cat fight." Police said a 14-year-old boy meows every time he sees his neighbor, 78-year-old Alexandria Carasia. The boy's family got rid of their cat after Carasia complained it used her flower garden as a litter box in Jeannette. I don't know if it qualifies as harrassment, but if that was my Grandma he was meowing at he would be too busy removing my foot from his ass to ever think about doing it again.

Johnny Coli Posted August 24, 2006 Share Posted August 24, 2006 How does she know that it was their cat that did it? If you look in the box and observe a cat, is it a proper assumption to make that you would find a turd? What if you only observed the turd, could you make the assumption that it came from a cat, even in the absence of a cat? Is her reasoning "Cat, ergo, turd?" Or is it "Turd, ergo, cat?" Some would argue that the turd is always there, regardless of whether the cat ever was, simply because the absense of a turd takes up as much space in the mind as an actual one. The turd was there because the old woman willed it into existence. The boy, much like the cat, has nothing to do with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Age does not equal earned respect. I dunno the whole situation, so I'm not suggesting who is wrong and who is right here. But, "right", "good", "truth" and the like, are not the sole domain of the aged. There are PLENTY of old asswipes who deserve ridicule...they've earned it by their rotten behavior. Sometimes it takes a kid to dole out that ridicule. "Sassing"? How old ARE you Cincy? I'm thinking you come from the "Children should be seen and not heard" school.

Not only is she a persnickity, obstreperous, cantankerous, mean and vicious dried-out old rag with way too much time on her hands, but - as you so astutely bring to light - she is most likely quite senile and delusional in addition to her malevolence.

ExiledInIllinois Posted August 24, 2006 Share Posted August 24, 2006 The fact is the woman complained and won the removal of the cat. Like it or not... The boy lost (and his cat) and should respect the rule of law. Nothing saying he can't keep a cat in his house or his property... Just can't let it roam. Short article though... Just my $.02.

Just my $.02. 751052[/snapback] I am having a problem with the neighbor's cat right now. He lets his cat roam free. We have a fenced-in yard (fence is about 4.5 feet high). Even though there is a fence, the cat can still jump to the top of the fence and into our yard. He likes chasing after the birds in our yard (we have several feeders) and the squirrels. The problem is that I have a 95lb German Shepherd that does not like the aforementioned cat. We generally keep our dog inside, but we also need to let him out to do his business and to get exercise. I talked with the neighbor and he said, "There is nothing I can do to keep the cat out of your yard." Well, then I guess that there is nothing I can do to prevent my dog from ripping your cat to shreds. Problem solved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But from the articles posted here, the only thing the woman seems to be claiming is the boy MEOWED at her...from his parent's property. There is no claim of, or reference to, ANY other harrassment. You would think that would be mentioned if there was a lawsuit in play. Again, she is suing him, not complaining to his parents. That suggests (it doesn't prove) she is a litigious B word. He might be disrespectful. Big woop! BTW, the "slapping some sense" argument works both ways. If she is the whiney old B word, these articles suggest, give credit to the kid. Many would have done things far worse than a simple "meow". Aparently he knew he couldn't slap some sense into the old bag. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
