Bull the cat has found himself
homeless... for having the wrong sort of furry friends.
In this funny saga which has gripped the
town of Lafia, in Northern Nigeria, the seven-year-old feline has been abandoned by his
owner for being gay.
The middle-aged woman claims that he
has engaged in 'unnatural sexual behaviour', making advances towards other male
cats in the house while shunning the females in the area.
In further damning evidence, neighbours
said that none of the other cats born while Bull was in the house had his
colouring.
They claim that this is because he is
not doing his heterosexual best to continue the species.
Bull’s owner, who has not been named,
claims his actions are ‘a contradiction of the laws of nature’ and has kicked
him out of her house, saying ‘anybody interested in this gay cat can have it
because I have no further use of it.’
As yet, no one has adopted the cat, but
many residents of the area have been thronging to the house to see the
spectacle, and have been cracking jokes about the incident.
While Bull may be the first cat to be publicly declared gay and disowned by his owner, he is not the first pet.
In 2013, a Tennessee man sent his dog
to an animal shelter to be put down after he suspected it of being gay.
The dog found a new and more
sympathetic owner just hours before he was to be destroyed.
