Catatonic

EV Grieve has been doing yeoman’s reporting on the breaking news of the feline-related lawsuit relating to McSorley’s — the 156 year-old tavern down in the east village. Apparently some chick from Hasbrouck Heights says that Minnie, the McSorley’s house cat, took a nip at her.

As the Post explains:

The suit doesn’t say exactly how the terrible tabby made a meal of Sibley.

But the woman claims the “live animal” attack left her with “serious injuries” that required medical care, the court papers state.

McSorley’s owner, Matthew Maher, says he is shocked by allegations about the bar’s peaceful house cat, Minnie the Second.

“I have no recollection of any attack,” he said. “If I would have known, I would have been the first to call her and say ‘Are you OK? Can I do anything for you?’ ”

Maher says he doesn’t allow Minnie to roam the sawdust floors during drinking hours, which is a violation of city law.
“[Sibley] must have been here after hours,” he said.

“There have always been cats at McSorley’s, and there always will,” Maher said.

Sibley and her attorney declined to comment.

An EV Grieve reader pointed out this explicit video of the vicious beastress. Beware.

    I hope whatever judge rules on this exiles this woman to a lifetime of drinking in bars in Jersey, where she belongs.

      No need to punish Jersey!

        True, I’d say banish her to Peoria, but I’m going to be there in a couple of weeks and don’t want to run into her in a bar. At least she’ll never darken McSorley’s again!

    What a fucking jack ass.

    What kind of person gets a little boo boo and then feels so injured and aggrieved against that they feel that someone must be punished, some one must pay, and, most importantly, some one must be paid.

    Fucking sociopath.
