Cincinnati Animal CARE, the shelter in Cincinnati which also serves as animal control, was called out in late January to get a cat out of a tree. The police probably should have been more specific, so the animal warden could have brought more deputies and more equipment. The 30+ pound cat in the tree was an African serval, and did not want to be captured. The serval had jumped out of a car as police were arresting the driver, and climbed the first tree he saw.
The dog warden eventually managed to get the cat out of the tree, but the serval's leg was broken during the struggle. The serval, named Amiry, was taken to Cincinnati Animal CARE's medical department, where his leg was set. A DNA sample was taken along with a toxicology test, which came back positive for cocaine! The DNA test confirmed that Amiry is indeed a serval, and not a Savannah cat. It is illegal to own a serval in Ohio, while a Savannah cat (which is produced by crossing a serval with a domestic cat) is okay. The serval's owner has been cooperative. He has relinquished ownership of the cat to authorities, and has been paying for Amiry's medical care.
Amiry has since been transferred to the Cincinnati Zoo, where he has been under the supervision of the zoo's medical staff. -via reddit
