And someone brought a cat.

Maybe they don't like cats?

While we're on the subject of dumb things people do...

Lady w/kid: Oh, what an adorable puppy!
Kid: Can I pet him?
Owner: Sure, she loves being petted
Happy dog, happy kid, lots of tail wagging and giving kisses to the kid

Lady: How old is your puppy?
Owner: 5 months.
Lady: What kind of a dog is that?
Owner: Pitbull

Lady: (Screaming at her kid) Get away from that dog!

Yanks kid's arm, stalks off in a huff, muttering about how people shouldn't
have dangerous dogs in the public, especially where there are kids.
