HUDDERSFIELD, England, Jan. 16 (UPI) -- Officials with Britain's Royal Mail say they may suspend delivery to the home of a woman with an aggressive cat.
Local mail officials in Huddersfield complained to postal brass that Sarah Gregg's cantankerous cat, Dipity, jumped three feet in the air and slashed a postman's hand as he pushed mail into the home's delivery box, Sky news reported Tuesday.
Royal Mail bosses sent a letter of warning to Gregg.
"If any further incidents are allowed to take place I shall have to consider suspending deliveries until I am satisfied the danger is removed," the letter said.
Gregg said she understood the postal service's concerns.
"I can't say I blame them for threatening to cut me off. I love Dipity to bits -- she's adorable -- but I'd be the first to admit she's a little terror.
"All she wants to do is pick fights. When I took her to be neutered she tried to gouge lumps out of the vet and was hissing at all the dogs."
