Cat shoots owner


Associated Press
Mar. 10, 2005 10:31 AM

BATES TOWNSHIP, Mich. - A man cooking in his kitchen was shot after one of his cats knocked his 9mm handgun onto the floor, discharging the weapon, Michigan State Police said.

Joseph Stanton, 29, of Bates Township in Iron County, was shot in his lower torso around 6 p.m. Tuesday, the state police post in Iron River reported. He was transported to Iron County Community Hospital.

Michelle Sand, a spokeswoman at the Iron River hospital, said Stanton was treated there before being transferred to Marquette General Hospital for further treatment. But Marcie Miller, a representative of the Marquette facility, said there was no record of the hospital receiving a patient by that name.

A telephone message seeking comment was left Wednesday at Stanton's home.

State police said he was cooking at his stove when the cat knocked the loaded gun off the kitchen counter behind him.

Lower Torso? That doesn't sound good. Good Idea not to have one chambered while you're cooking in the kitchen, yah think?

Well if that dudes cooking was anything close to the way you prepare your Tri-tips, he might have had to squeeze off a couple of rounds before eating.

That's why Reggie the Wonder Cat doesn't have the combination to my gun safe...

It's bad enough being a CatValet, I don't want to add to injury by getting one, as Forest Gump said, "right in the Buttocks!"

Abe and Tracy, you guys are suck- Moon Moon ...

I have to admit though, the last tri-tip encounter wasn't bad. But didn't you cook them after like 4 large martinis on the "rocks"??

I'm thinking you musta forgot when you put them on the grill...
