Jingles HonoredSunday, Feb 22, 2009 6:52 PM The recent efforts of a cat received accolades throughout the cat world. Jingles, a siamese from western Pennsylvania, freed a person that was smothered by Steelers' Super Bowl photos. Fluff, an owner of the cat, admits that the cat surprised even her. "I didn't see it in Jingles," Fluff admitted. "He's so laid back that I thought he was Jamaican." Jingles proved to be less than "laid back" when the cat freed Mo from a barrage of photos that pinned him. "I figured I was going to have to just fall asleep and wait about eight hours or so until someone got home," Mo explained. "My grandmother says she can't hear so I figure I would have been trapped for quite some time." Even Mo admitted he was surprised. "I figured I had a better chance of Neil showing up even though he had been gone since October. No way did I figure on Jingles pulling me out of there. All I saw was his paws whipping off photos. It was something." When it was all said and done, Neil arrived and couldn't believe the cat was neatly putting the photos on the pool table. "I wondered what was going on, and when Mo told me what happened I figured he was making it all up," Neil said. "But then Mo showed me some pictures he snapped while Jingles was getting him out of there." Because of the extraordinary efforts of Jingles, he has been asked to be the featured speaker at the Cat House Conference to take place on June 21 in Memphis. Cats from around the world attend the annual event. Nay, who shares ownership of Jingles with Fluff, eluded to being proud. "Jingles isn't stupid. I've seen him drive to the Club to pick up Shirley from time to time. I just never said anything. I always knew he had it in him."
