Prayers for our friends up there Fortunately, cats CAN swim, if they have to - I understand that in rural areas they even catch fish. On the other hand, although I've heard of cats who find water fascinating, most of them prefer to avoid it. A friend had a cat who was so mesmerized by the water in the tub, if it got into the bathroom when she was bathing, that it tended to fall in! (She learned to have TWO bath-towels handy - one for herself and one for the cat.) |

But I do wonder why the cat was with him in the truck to begin with? The article said she was an indoor cat. No suspicions about the guy, I'm just curious how she happened to be there. He seems like a good guy. As an aside, I wonder why the windows wouldn't open? The water pressure on the windows would be pressing against the glass, which shouldn't prevent it from rolling down into the door if someone is cranking the window opener. -- Joyce Socialism never took root in America because the poor see themselves not as an exploited proletariat but as temporarily embarassed millionaires. --John Steinbeck |

The water pressure on the windows would be pressing against the glass, which shouldn't prevent it from rolling down into the door if someone is cranking the window opener. From the story, it sounded like he was taking the cat from wherever he lived to safer ground. In fact, his mother said he went back to his home, which was at risk of flooding, in order to get the cat and bring it with him to a safer area. Electric windows short out when a vehicle is submerged, making them impossible to open. Every so often around here someone goes off the road into a pond or the ocean, and as a result of news reports on such tragedies, some people carry a rock or hammer in their cars to break through the windows if they should ever find themselves in such a situation. -- Cheryl |
