Area Cat Wanted for Death of House Plant

Chicago police are on the lookout for a striped, long-haired cat named Lilian who was last seen not watering the fern she was explicitly left in charge of.

“That plant is long gone,” Alfred Cotts tells The Fluffington Post. “Lilian had one job: Keep the fern alive. But she spent all her time popping in and out of a cardboard box. She didn’t water it, or sing to it at all.”

A warrant for Lilian’s arrest has been issued by the Chicago PD, connected to two charges of willful neglect and one charge of first degree plantslaughter.
