An Illinois man planned to kill a rival for his wife’s affections by electrocuting him and then framing the victim’s cat for the murder. Brett Nash was arrested for the bizarre plot in January and pleaded guilty in early December. Do cats ever kill people?

Smothering deaths appear to have given rise to a widespread myth that cats suck the breath from sleeping infants. The cat was supposed to have aligned its nostrils with those of a sleeping baby, using its chin to hold the child’s mouth shut. The cat’s motivation varies depending on who tells the tale. Some say cats are drawn irresistibly to the smell of breast milk on a baby’s breath, while others believe jealousy is to blame. Ernest Hemingway called proponents of the wives’ tale “ignorant and prejudiced,” and bragged that his own cat, Feather Puss, guarded his son while he slept.

This makes me happy. Thank you, inscribed. :)
