Farmer’s Insurance commercial coming up.................
The eagle had enough of the cat’s cr@p.
When I was living in Alaska, an eagle dropped a salmon through the front window of a commuter plane. It landed in the pilot’s lap when the plane was on final.
This is almost exactly how Aeschylus died!
Until the driver observed it, the cat was neither alive nor dead.
Just goes to show ya, chances of losing a windshield from an eagle dropping
a rabbit from the sky is very low, but never zero.
AI-driven CDS.
Say no to AI.
That dead cat did not bounce.
That’s a new one to add to the book “101 Uses for a Dead Cat!”
Wonder how many things the eagle has dropped trying to nail a car before. Finally got it.
Good thing no one was in the passenger seat at the time, might have been a different outcome.
I am always terrified at night when I drive in upstate Pennsylvania visiting relatives, roads are pitch black, I’m afraid a deer is going to jump out and I’m going to hit it. I try to get behind a large truck. In the morning, there are always dead deer along the highway.
The impact was catastrophic.
Poor kitty- must’a been life number nine!
Eagle: “Just my luck; look there’s a nice plump-looking pussycat. I’m going in fast.” Opportunity
Cat: “OMG, OMG, I’ve just been taken by an eagle. I’m gonna die and be eaten. My nine lives are up for sure.” Acceptance
Eagle: “I don’t think this is really worth it. This fuzzball is screaming bloody murder and will try to scratch my eyeballs out. Good-bye kitty.” Judgment
Cat: “Hooray, for whatever reason I’ve been spared. Now all I have to do is use my natural instincts to turn and land on my feet on solid ground and then run home.” Blessing
“Uh-oh, what is that car doing on that roadway, and I have no control . . . .” Calamity
In Arizona, we have had bird of prey drop rattlesnakes onto cars hoods and winshields.
Never heard of one going through the windshield.
Aw, poor kitty. It must have been in horrible pain from those talons penetrating its body.
I’ve had ring neck pheasants and turkeys commit suicide on my windshield, but never a cat. Most recently I had a hawk dive right at me and smash the windshield of my truck right in front of me on I-81 in Pennsylvania.
“Bald eagle drops cat through driver’s windshield on North Carolina highway”. I guess the eagle thought she was a cat lady.
And the eagle thinks the shiny ground rolling thing stole the eagle’s meal.
Well, that’s one way to get rid of a cat.
