Tulsa cat charged with plantslaughter

From today's edition of the Tulsa World:

A local cat was arrested yesterday afternoon on charges of plantslaughter. Cat Gergiev is thought to have committed an act of negligence resulting in the death of the plant Wenito (formerly known as Seymour) when dashing about frantically from window sill to desk to floor, disturbing the stationary plant and hurling it to the floor, pot and all. Although the pot suffered but little damage, Wenito lost an appendage in the fall, which occurred at approximately 9:45 a.m., and was horribly mangled, his torso nearly torn from his roots. Despite the best efforts of the medical personnel who arrived promptly at the scene, Wenito was pronounced dead at 10:15 a.m.
