Cat under truck survives 100km ride underneath a truck. [vid] Will now go on to terrorize Nick Nolte and Jessica Lange.

Survivor kitty looks, needless to say, completely disinterested.

  • Damn! that cat survived the NEW JERSEY TURNPIKE?!?!!! I know many human drivers who cant handle that road. go kitties!
  • (Can I repeat one more time that the cat was under a truck? Twice wasn't enough for the emphasis I wanted to make. The cat was under a truck. Under. A. Truck.)
  • *cat steps on rake, grumbles*
  • That's how Rusty the Cat ended up with my family, lo many years ago.
  • Tough little guy!
  • yay!
  • That's nothing. I once survived for two weeks stuck under the floorboards.
  • can I mention again the truck was on the New Jersey Turnpike? THE NEW JERSEY TURNPIKE!!!!!!
  • Is the New Jersey turnpike the one on the intro to The Sopranos?
  • I'm confused. Where was the cat again?
  • "Countin' the cats on the New Jersey Turnpike/They've all come to look for Amerrrricaaaa!"
  • Capt. Renault's cat was on The Sopranos? Cool!
  • I can see the new film being pitched in Hollywood right now: Cats! Under a motherfuckin' truck!
  • The New Soprano Catpike is a bitch, that's for sure. Go Go Kitty!
  • "Go Go Kitty!" *tries to think of joke linking thread to "Faster, Pussycat! Kill! Kill!", fails*
  • Cats! Under a motherfuckin' truck! thanks, ooga_booga, that gave me a good laugh!
  • I wonder if a very small child could do that.
  • Cats! Under a motherfuckin' truck! And a whole new genre is born. First snakes, then cats, then Ducks! On a motherfuckin' unicycle! or, Gazelles! Inside a motherfuckin bumper car!, or finally, Antelope! On a motherfuckin' blimp!
  • I suppose, if I take out the vulgairties out of my last post, I'll have a best selling children's book series.
  • That cat looked shifty to me. Bet you it was trying to steal her hubcaps, and foolishly hid after being caught in the act. Stupid Kitty - next time have a lookout.
  • Miracle gonna fuck you UP maan!
  • well if you've never been to Newark, allow me to assure you the cats are probably some bad-ass mofo's...
  • Initially, the group said a cat clung to the underside of a sport utility vehicle that traveled about 70 miles on the highway in late December. It turns out it was more like 30 miles, a Ford Taurus rather than an SUV and the cat was tucked in an engine compartment rather than hanging onto the bottom of the vehicle... ... and the cat was actually James Frey impersonating JT Leroy.
  • Still scary riding in an engine compartment. Many cats die from that each winter when they climb in trying to get warm. So stop hatin' on that cat already! So was the part in the original story about the other motorist who saw the cat and urged the catcar to pull over just made up BS? 'Cause you couldn't see a cat in an engine compartment from another car.
  • I wondered about that too Lara. Maybe the "CAT IN ENGINE" light on the dashboard came on.
  • Paws in the grill. Tiny green eyes peering out. I don't know. It sounds odd to me, too. And yes, cats get hurt/killed all the time by this behavior. Stay away from the fan belt, pumpkin.
  • CAT IN ENGINE LIGHT!!!! **Spews beer on keyboard** **wets pants**
  • Spake Blanky: I wonder if a very small child could do that. I dunno! Let's see! oh, wait...
  • Counselor! Come out, come out, wherever you are!
  • Die Bart, Die! *backs away from GranMa, tosses her a towel*
  • I really think Ooga_booga needs to have his comment immortalized, don't you? MonkeyFilter: Cats! Under a motherfuckin' truck! The CAT IN ENGINE light came on!!! I just can't get enough of it!!! **grabs towel, dries eyes, blots chair**
  • it's in the shape of a cat with an exclamation mark over it
  • wuz trying to picture a towel that looked like a cat with an exclamation point over it....then, oh! right, the engine light, right...
  • Plleeeeeze, Koko! STOP!!! It hurts to laugh this much. it's in the shape of a cat with an exclamation mark over it--better than a decapitated cat
  • You know how people who want to have a baby think that all babies look so wonderful and want to take them home? I'm having that about cats right now. If I weren't in another country, I would have walked into that shelter offering to adopt it. Want cat, really want cat, but life too unstable and not allowed in my apartment, but ohh, pretty cat...
  • Because I had to Picture goes here.
  • jb, I feel your pain-- As all my friends with pets know, I too am longing for an animal friend. But I live alone in a small apartment with no outdoors, and I travel a lot. Sigh. However! I would not make my cat ride under any trucks. No, indeed.
  • Lara: Do you really, really, really want to be responsible for me busting a gut and dying of laughter? **bang** It's all your fault...
  • ((((( Lara!
  • me wanting kitty really bad too jb and pallas. really bad. luck me nice friends have kitties to play with cause I cant have a pet right now either. kitty!! want kitty!!! soft fur, cute little evil faces. kiiiittttttyyyyy!!!!!
  • Lara, I think there's a job waiting for you at Volvo.
