Florida Has Zombie Cats

This cat was hit by a car, declared dead and buried. 5 days later, it crawled out of its grave and wandered home demanding kibble. For some reason, the Tampa Florida family sent the kitty to surgery instead of killing it with fire.

From the BBC here:

A cat in Florida has had surgery after apparently clawing its way out of his grave following a collision with a car.

Bart was discovered by its owner’s neighbour in Tampa five days after he was found lying in the road stiff in a pool of blood, and was presumed dead.

He is now recovering after treatment for a broken jaw and ruptured eye.

Bart’s owner, Ellis Hutson, told the Tampa Bay Times he “couldn’t stand” to bury the animal and asked his neighbour Dave to dig him a shallow grave.

Five days later, bedraggled Bart was found meowing for food by another of Mr Hutson’s neighbours, Dusty Albritton.

“At first it blew me away”, Ms Albritton said. “All I knew was this cat was dead and ‘Pet Sematary’ is real,” she added, referring to the horror film and book by US writer Stephen King.

Shoulda fed it to the gators. Zombiecats will just make other zombiecats and soon it will be the zombiekittiepocalypse!
