Cat Denied Gift Delivery for Lack of ID

Brittany Maher-Kirk’s mother found an advent calendar for cats that contained cat treats. She bought it and mailed it to her daughter’s cat, Ted, in London, UK. When the delivery came, Maher-Kirk wasn’t home. When she tried to retrieve the package from the post office, she was denied because she didn’t bring Ted’s ID. Maher-Kirk explained that Ted doesn’t have any ID; he’s a cat. Maher-Kirk called the head office later to complain, and was invited to come down there.

The workers did express disappointment that she didn't bring Ted in with her, but she explained that the adorable feline suffers from feline immunodeficiency virus, which requires him to stay indoors.

"I did offer to show them pictures of Ted, but they said that they believe me, as no one could make it up," she stated.

The postal staff explained that they were not obligated to hand the package over, but they did in the end. Ted is reportedly enjoying his advent calendar treats.
