Hum Posted September 26, 2012 Share Posted September 26, 2012 WARWICK, R.I.?A Rhode Island woman has been accused by her neighbor of violating an animal noise ordinance by training her cockatoo to cuss. The Providence Journal reports that Lynne Taylor is accused in Warwick municipal court of training her cockatoo, Willy, to say expletives. The bird then allegedly aimed them at her neighbors, who happen to be Taylor's ex-husband and his girlfriend. A municipal judge on Thursday denied Taylor's request to dismiss the case. Her neighbors, Kathleen Melker and Craig Fontaine, say they have been subjected to repeated curses from the bird, at one point for 15 minutes at a time. The animal noise ordinance imposes a small fine on any pet owner whose animal creates habitual noise. A judge has issued restraining orders telling both women to have no contact. from: The Providence Journal, http://www.providencejournal.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
