MONTREAL -- Canada Post carriers are a hardy bunch. Well, that describes most of them, anyway. That doesn't appear to be the case with one Montreal-area Canada Post worker who was so put off by the presence of an unassuming cat that the carrier refused to deliver that day's mail to the cat's home. The cat in question is one Caramel, a 14-year-old, 6-pound cat who has one eye. Carmel belongs to Alissa, a Westmount woman who posted about her experience on Instagram. Alissa returned home the other day to find a hastily scrawled note on an envelope from a Canada Post carrier (who she says was replacing her normal carrier for the day). The note, which Alissa posted on Instagram Tuesday, was succinct: "Crazy cat with one eye was going to eat me." Alissa was more bemused than anything that Caramel could have that kind of effect on anyone, let alone postal carriers, who presumably come across much more menacing obstacles while doing their rounds. Caramel "mostly hides in the bushes and charms our neighbours into feeding him," Alissa wrote in her post. montreal.ctvnews.ca/crazy-cat-with-one-eye-was-going-to-eat-me-1.4618916![]()  |

IDK, The Queen of All She Surveyed could glare with such menace that guests would back away/stop from entering the room She happened to be glaring from. I'd cut the mail carrier some slack. I felt the glare a few times on the back of my head when I tried to ignore her by pretending I didn't see Her. She lives on in infamy and as she has crossed the Rainbow Bridge (and made a detour) I strongly suspect Satan is struggling to cope with Her presence in Hell (I imagine he's lost his throne to her as I'm sure she'd enjoy napping on it.) She was the best, most awesome cat I've ever had. She loved me so much and I loved her. I doubt I will ever have a cat like her again.  |

"Neither snow nor rain nor heat nor gloom of night stays these couriers from the swift completion of their appointed rounds." is the postal carriers credo. I guess if they get a one-eyed, elderly cat glaring at them, all bets are off. |
