A cat in Boston in America was summoned for jury duty. Sounds like a practical joke, but it did happen as ABC's Channel 13 reported that feline Sal was called up.
Sal's owners Anna and Guy Esposito had to get a letter from the vet to excuse him from court.
Apparently, The Espositos think they may know the source of the mix up - Sal really is a member of the family, so on the last Census form, Anna listed him under "pets".
Anna said: "I just wrote 'Sal Esposito', scratched out the 'dog' and wrote 'cat'."
