[q]NAPPING CAT 'ARRESTED'

New York City transit police have locked up a month-old kitten found on the city's subway system.

Gizmo was asleep on a bucket next to her musician owner when police swooped at Manhattan's 14th Street Station.


Busker Angel Melendez, 35, was locked up for having an uncaged animal in the subway system.

Mr Melendez and Gizmo spent 40 hours in separate city lock-ups before they were reunited.

"She's like my baby. I didn't want to leave her alone at home," said Mr Melendez, who was playing plastic drums when officers arrived.

The arresting officer wrote: "... the defendant knew he was not allowed to possess a cat not enclosed in a container inside a subway facility."

The bizarre incident was the latest example of what critics say is a ticketing blitz designed to help the cash-strapped city.

Officials recently fined a man for sitting on a milk crate and a woman for talking loudly to her neighbour.[/q]
