So, Maple made page 3 of the NY Post today. It's a pretty good picture. I will see if I can get it scanned and post it (no pun intended)...

Hey, V! I already put a quarter in that rat bastard's pocket today. Glad you didn't have to do the same!

Good work, V! Dat's my baby!!

Maple called. She spoke with the NYPD. The woman denies having stabbed the cat and the "so called" eyewitnesses were not really eyewitnesses to the stabbing of the cat. So, the case of cruelty is dead unless she admits it.

what a world wind day LOL
I was stopped and asked if I was the girl in the paper :) that was fun.

they have the pic hanging up at work.

update on the kitty. he had surgery and did great. he did loose his eye but will survive.

I got a call from the LT that is handling the case, he said he thinks there are fish in the womans apartment.
I ASKED THEM WHEN I WAS THERE IF THERE WERE ANY OTHER ANIAMLS!!!
So they gave me the woman that was killed brothers home phone number. that was a very very hard call to make. but no more animals. poor family. the press is camped out at there house. they are screening phone calls. this was such a tragic thing. but I am glad it had a happy ending for the cat!

Maple's back on the media scene!
My darling wife is awaiting a press conference on a follow-up to the story in this thread. They want her to hang around for it. We shall see what this will bring. WPIX is already on scene, with more to come.

Stay tuned!!!

So, Maple got interviewed by WPIX (10:00 news tonight), ABC (not sure about air time) and a slew of newspapers. They interviewed the attending vet, the lady who adopted the cat and herself. I'll post whatever I can get hold of...

XL, it was a little joke that played on Geo's post, and not meant to dominate here. I made the thread for my wife to share her story with her friends. Do me a favor and don't ruin it.
