Navarro the cat has found a new home with owners who hopefully won't want to eat him.
The Erie County SPCA in New York says Buffalo police seized the four-year-old black and white cat from a man's trunk Sunday night.
The officers had pulled the man over and heard the cat in the trunk. When officers opened the trunk, they found Navarro covered in crushed red peppers, chili pepper, salt and oil, the SPCA said.
When asked why the man appeared to be "marinating" his cat, he allegedly told officers the cat had been "mean" to him, the SPCA said.
The 51-year-old man was arrested and charged with one count of animal cruelty.
SPCA staff said Navarro was adopted by a woman named Vicky who wanted a friend for her other cat. Navarro, now named Oliver, went to meet his new feline friend Tuesday evening.
Mods move this to the nutrition section if you deem appropriate. :)
