Cats eat plants, and lilies are highly poisonous to cats, according to the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty (ASPCA). They can kill a cat in a matter of hours. Even eating a very small part of the plant can cause severe kidney failure and death.

 

Cops threatened to send in a dog to drive out two felons holed up in a house in Westville. The only problem: they didn’t actually have a dog on the scene.

Instead, one officer went in the backyard and started barking. He turned out to be just as good as the real thing.

Here’s what happened, according to police spokesman Officer Dave Hartman and the New Haven Independent…….
