Cat Shot Through With Arrow, Survives *Warning: Disturbing Video*
I should probably start this article off with some cute pun about cats having nine lives and whatnot. But that’s stupid, so I’m not going to do it.
Instead I’m simply going to ask, what the hell is the deal with orange tabby cats getting shot through with arrows?
This week, animal control officers in Houston captured a stray cat that had been wandering around the same neighborhood for three days with an arrow through its back. Then they took the cat to a local animal hospital, where someone who thinks they’re super clever named the cat Cupid.
Luckily, although the arrow entered at one shoulder and left through the other shoulder, it managed to miss any vital organs. So little cupid is expected to make a full recovery.
But here’s the thing: something very similar happened only two years ago. An orange tabby cat in Indiana named Brownie was shot with an arrow—the only difference being that Brownie was shot through the head.
Miraculously, Brownie also survived because the arrow only “skimmed” the skull.
In any case, I’m not sure what’s more disturbing: the fact that people are shooting orange cats with arrows, or the fact that these cats just won’t seem to die like normal biological organisms. Are we one the verge of a zombie cat apocalypse?
