Man airlifted to hospital after fight with cat Rick Chandler
This is a black day for Texas. How could an adult male get so totally owned by a housecat that his injuries would require an air ambulance evacuation? Is this the same state that fought in the Alamo?
No, this has nothing to do with sports. But read the account below and then tell me you’re not glad I included it:
A Cleveland (TX) man was attacked by a housecat Friday afternoon and the man’s injuries are so severe that he had to be taken by air ambulance to Memorial Hermann Hospital in Houston.
The altercation between the man and the animal occurred at a home on CR 3182 a few miles south of Cleveland in Liberty County.
At some point during the attack, the man and the cat reportedly were injured by a knife the man was holding. The man was taken to Cleveland Regional Medical Center before being transported to Houston.
Yes, the man was armed with a knife, and still could not fend off Mr. Whiskers. He was rushed to Memorial Hermann, of course, because of its internationally renowned Cat Trauma Ward.
And that’s it, Texas. Rangers lose World Series to team from California, Obama captures bin Laden when Bush couldn’t, and now this. Time to change state slogan to 'Some Messing With Texas Now Allowed'.”
Man airlifted after fight with cat Game Warden Danny Diaz expected to find an animal a little more fierce than the tabby cat he encountered when he was called to a home on CR 3182 in Cleveland on Friday. The cat, like the one pictured, was mortally wounded by a man who attacked the cat with a knife after the cat reportedly attacked the man. During the struggle with the cat, the man sustained cuts and injuries so serious that he had to be taken by air ambulance to Memorial Hermann Hospital in Houston. The cat was later euthanized by a Cleveland veterinarian. contributed

The altercation between the man and the animal occurred at a home on CR 3182 a few miles south of Cleveland in Liberty County.
At some point during the attack, the man and the cat reportedly were injured by a knife the man was holding. The man was taken to Cleveland Regional Medical Center before being transported to Houston.
Game wardens Danny Diaz and Adam Broll captured the cat. It was taken to Big Thicket Animal Hospital for examination.

Nice job killing a cat, ya jackwagon. Hope R Lee Ermey visits your hospital room to make you drop and give him twenty-five.
