POOR KITTY!















One morning when Ford, my husband, was going to work he went out and started the engine on the car. Suddenly, the engine thumped and was dead. He got out and lifted the hood to see what was the matter. He discovered that a kitty had been snapped into the fan belt and was in shreds. The kitty belonged to our landlady. He informed her of the accident and then went about to remove the kitty from the fan belt. He had to use pliers to pull out the pieces of the cat--after just eating breakfast! He finally got it all out and was able to start the car.



After that, when he went somewhere, he always lifted the hood or pounded on it to make sure that nothing was lying on the engine. The cat had been drawn to the warmth of the engine from the night before. He felt badly that he had caused the death of an animal but, of course, it was not his fault. The landlady should have kept her cat inside.


So if you leave your car outside make sure you pound on the hood before you start your car to scare out any cats or other animals that could be sleeping on the engine.
