Santa Clawed by Bobcat
Interesting article and video interview with the attacked Santa.

http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/28162817/

Quote:
The cat, named "Benny," appeared terrified because dogs were nearby, Bebbington, 47, told The Press of Atlantic City.

"It had very powerful jaws and big teeth," he said, estimating the cat weighed about 30 pounds.

The woman who brought it to the store told people there she bought the cat from a breeder in Wyoming for $1,500.

"Her last words were, 'I have a permit and the cat has all his vaccines,' " Bebbington said.

Dear Santa:

Bobcats are wild animals; please do not spoon with them.

Regards,
