AA Roadwatch had to issue an excellent Twitter clarification about a cat

Grumpy black This is not the cat in question. Although we imagine the M8 cat is also pretty grumpy right now. Tomi Tapio Tomi Tapio

A NAIL-BITING saga was played out on the M8 motorway in Tipperary this morning.

It all began with this relatively innocent tweet from AA Roadwatch:

This was an obvious cause for concern, but nothing to worry about if you weren’t on the M8 around Cahir.

But then came this follow-up tweet:

Cleared?

This caused widespread confusion and concern.

Especially after AA clarified that it WAS a cat. (Not a misspelled car, as some people assumed.)

Finally, AA came to everyone’s rescue and reassured people that the cat was fine.

Whew. Thanks guys. Pats on the back all round.
