When good intentions go bad !!

I took these from the Sky News website. These are actual calls people made to the RSPCA ( Royal Society For The Prevention Of Cruelty To Animals).

I found them amusing.



On a hot summer's day a caller rang in to say there was a dog in a car, shaking its head, looking distressed. The controller asked for the registration plate of the car. The caller went to get a closer look, then apologised and said it was "one of those nodding Churchill dogs".

An elderly lady called to report an abandoned baby hedgehog that she was looking after. When the animal collection officer arrived to pick up the animal, he found it was in fact a conker.

A concerned member of the public reported an exotic animal stuck up a tree, in distress and very active. The caller feared it was going to jump and fall to its death. But on arrival, the animal collection officer discovered it was a carrier bag flapping in the wind.

Another caller said they had seen an injured swan tumbling down a river. The bedraggled bird turned out to be a patio chair.

A caller phoned in to report an owl involved in a road traffic accident. They said it was very bloody and didn't want to get too close. An animal collection officer was dispatched to deal with the incident. He discovered it was actually a squashed turnip.

A lady called to report a rat trapped behind a chest of drawers. When the inspector arrived it turned out to be a pair of knickers.
