This is Travis. Did ya hear what Travis did this week? He savagely attacked and disfigured a woman in Stamford, Connecticut. The owner of 15-year old Travis, Sandra Herold, had raised the animal from infancy. The chimp rode in the car, played on the computer, and drank wine from a goblet at the table. When Travis got unruly earlier this week, the owner called on a friend to help bring him inside. When the friend exited the car, Travis attacked her. Earlier in the day, the owner had given Travis a dose of Xanax to calm him down. This was not the first time the 200 pound animal had escaped the house and needed reinforcements to bring him home. On this occasion, police were forced to shoot and kill Travis.
Hmm... sounds like a wild animal to me. I wonder if Sandra Herold happened to catch the commercial for Pedigree that's currently airing. The ad shows owners calling to their wild pets (a rhino and an ostrich) only to have the animals charge through the front door, leaving a wake of mess behind them. At the end of the commercial a guy is throwing a Frisbee to a clueless, motionless cow. The point is that a dog is a suitable, loving pet that would make most people happy. Where is the fun in having a pet that wears diapers, and on occasion you need to sedate? Ive' got kids for that.
