Maggie, a cat from West Hempstead, NY, was minding her own business when Armstrong made his move.
In what witnesses are calling a desperate need for affection, the dog sidled up next to Maggie and “put his full weight on her.”
“[Maggie] passed out,” says Melissa Frank, who witnessed the event. “I picked her up and shook her – obviously the correct medical procedure – and she finally came to!”
