Yahoo Lifestyle Smelly Cat Returned After Parents Claim "He Farts All the Time"
By Sid Kirchheimer | Pet360.com
After raising quite a stink - literally, it's been said - the saga of Lenny the gassy cat has a happy ending. Whew!
From a Rochester, N.Y., shelter he's been adopted anew after his previous "forever" home lasted just two days, reportedly because of too much "eeew."
Bad rhyming aside, the story goes like this:
Lenny, a gorgeous Tuxedo cat was brought to Scottsville Veterinary Hospital and Pet Adoptions in February after living in a park for about a year. Nursed back to health, he was adopted out in March - only to be returned within 48 hours.
The reason: "He farts all the time," the local newspaper quotes intake forms submitted by the two-day adopter.
"But since he's been back here, there haven't been any problems," Scottville's adoptions directors Jessica Giehl told the Democrat & Chronicle. "But we did nickname him 'Smelly Cat.'"
His tale first captured the attention of Rochester residents with a nose for news, then USA Today, and even media in Europe.
Maybe because of celebrity - or a healthier diet - the 19-month-old neutered male found a new forever home…and thus far, there are no reports of feline flatulence from his new pet parents.
But if that occurs, one must wonder: Isn't home where is the fart is?
