Well here's the opposite of typical events: While two big dogs slept away, the family cat alerts homeowner to burgler! From the Green Bay Press-Gazette:
Ron Olson has two big dogs, but they were not the ones to come to his aid while he was being burglarized early Wednesday. It was his cat, Dusty.“He was just sort of howling,” Olson said. Olson went to investigate downstairs only to see someone standing in the patio door of his Oneida home around 6:20 a.m. Wednesday.
“My friends and I have been doing some work on this house.” Olson said. “At first I just thought it was them, so it didn’t startle me.”
Olson said he said hello and the person took off. He then realized he had been burglarized and that the subject seemed to have been in his house for a considerable period of time. The thief took the time to unhook some home audio and video equipment, and would have probably taken them if it weren’t for Dusty.
“He’s my boy,” Olson said.
Olson’s dogs, Cinnamon and Pongo, a Dalmatian and a German shepherd, have a combined weight of more than 200 pounds.
“They slept through the whole ordeal, which is pretty much what they do all the time,” Olson said.
Olson said he is going to give Dusty as much tuna as he wants, but in moderate portions because of his age.
