Meow You See Them

I’m a paramedic. We get a call to respond to an elderly patient falling in a country house. I could hear the patient yelling for help from within the house as I walked up the drive. I open the door, and about eight cats rush me.

I was a new medic, so I called over my partner, who was a few steps behind me.

Me: *Slamming door shut.* “I was about to go in, but I was rushed by like, eight cats. What do I do?”

Partner: “Patient takes priority. We go in, cats go out.”

I open the door, and I’m not making this up, over thirty cats rush out past me.

I get to the patient, and the first thing he says to me is:

Patient: “Don’t let the cats out.”
