Meerut, Jan 4 (SocialNews.XYZ) It was a 'pet cat-fight' that landed eight persons in hospital following a group clash in Uttar Pradesh's Meerut district.
The incident took place on Sunday in Shalimar Garden at Lisadi Gate where one Rafiq has about 10 pet cats.
One of his cats had scratched his neighbour's daughter Ayesha. Her father Shahzad complained about it to Rafiq.
Rafiq's cat again went to Shahzad's house on Sunday and this time, scratched his wife Sayama.
