KITTY REHAB

Ananova:

Pub cat goes into rehab

Pub cat Trixie had to go into rehab after becoming a drunk by lapping up left-overs from drip trays.
Owners Gary and Eileen Roberts feared the six-year-old was ill when she started behaving strangely reports The Sun.
But a vet discovered she had trouble standing up because she was almost permanently drunk.
After a period under observation Trixie recovered - apart from a hangover.
Vet Peter Munroe said: "I've known people giving dogs a lick of beer but this is the first cat I've seen that likes ale as much as this."
Trixie is now home at The Cock Hotel at Fforden, Mid-Wales - but she is banned from the bar.
