he exotic cat – known as a serval – tested positive for cocaine after being rescued in Cincinnati, according to animal control officials. Servals are medium-sized wild cats native to sub-Saharan Africa.
The serval, named Amiry, was rescued at the end of January after escaping from a vehicle during a police stop and climbing a tree, according to a March 9 Facebook post from Cincinnati Animal CARE, which responded to the incident. Ray Anderson, the shelter’s community engagement manager, told CNN that the cat’s owner had been pulled over by police for an unrelated traffic violation.
Hamilton County Dog Wardens, a division of Cincinnati Animal CARE, worked to retrieve the “highly agitated, highly upset” serval from the tree. The cat fell from the tree during the rescue attempt and fractured his leg, according to Anderson.

Sometimes pets inadvertently dose pets
Of course dogs are often shotgunned weed smoke
Usually they simply go to sleep
I’ve seen dogs dig up and eat pot stashes and a cat accidently eat a bit of windowpane blotter in 1973
The cat appeared ok the next day after a rather kooky day of uncle Sidney
I have also heard dog fighters give octane dope to fighting dogs
Not something I care to have experience with
Your govt and research labs routinely dose critters sadly we’ve all seen those mengele esque videos from the 50s and 60s
It’s sickening
Did she ever get her picture on the cover of the Rolling Stone? 😊😆
Lol
Savanah cats are beautiful. One episode of “Cats 101” featured them.
Or cocaine africanized honey bees? Or cocaine honey badger?
