Feline faux-paw: Empress of Ayodhaya cat drugged by amateur

[snoop1130]

 

In a shocking twist worthy of its own drama, fresh revelations have emerged from the set of the Thai historical series, The Empress of Ayodhaya. It’s been discovered that the mysterious black cat, who was anaesthetised during filming, was knocked out by someone with zero veterinarian credentials.

 

The Department of Livestock Development released a bombshell report today, November 15,revealing the latest in this unfolding scandal. Back on Wednesday, November 13, Chaiwalan Tunark, Animal Welfare and Veterinary Services Division chief, called in the vet squad to give the once dozy feline, lovingly known as “Samlee,” a thorough MOT.

 

The TV star cat is a five year old, sprightly, neutered male, sporting a sleek, all-black coat.

 

Samlee was subjected to a full physical, blood tests, liver and kidney checks, and X-rays galore, courtesy of the dedicated team at the Animal Hospital in Pathum Thani. And the verdict? Samlee came out with a purr-fect bill of health. The tests revealed normal blood work, and his organs and X-rays indicated everything was in tip-top shape.

 

 

However, the drama didn’t end there. When quizzed on who dared to wield the needle on set, Veterinarian Chaiwalan dropped another clanger: the so-called expert was nothing more than a model tasked with tending to the animals during filming—not a qualified vet.

 

Is this a case of feline foul play? When asked if any laws were broken, Chaiwalan assured curious minds that the whole affair was headed to investigators for a deep dive. We’ll have to wait but, rest assured, the claws are out as we await the investigators’ decision.
