Cat Vs. Postman

A family have been threatened with being blacklisted by postal staff unless they keep their cat under control the Royal Mail has confirmed.

The postal service delivered a warning letter to the family living on Chichester Road, Portsmouth, Hampshire after their pet cat, Lana, scratched a postman's hand while he was pushing letters through their letterbox.

Carl White, his wife Carol, and their two children Jack and Connor are now taking measures to keep Lana and the postman apart.

Since the incident the postman now knocks at the door to deliver the post to avoid any repeats.

The owner of Lana told the Portsmouth News "The postman had put the letter through the door and for some reason our cat scratched his hand."

"She wasn't being vicious, I think she saw the hand and was being playful."

"I think it's a bit much to say they might take us off the mailing list if it were to happen again."

A Royal Mail spokesman said "We can confirm an employee suffered an injury to a finger after being scratched by a cat while on deliveries."

"We have contacted the owner to make them aware of the matter and ensure we can continue to safely deliver to the address in future."

"Royal Mail takes very seriously the safety of its employees, particularly our frontline staff who deliver the mail."

So what do you think? Do you think the postal service is right or do you think that maybe they are taking things a bit far? Let us know what you think!
