Cecilia, you’re breaking his heart.
Uwe Mitzscherlich, a German postman, is so distraught about losing his 15-year-old cat, Cecilia, to obesity and diabetes that he “married” the animal, AFP reports. Says the otherwise single man:
“Cecilia is such a trusting creature. We cuddle all the time and she has always slept in my bed. Our hearts beat as one — it’s unique!”
Marrying an animal is technically illegal. The man held a mock ceremony by hiring an actress to officiate; the man’s twin brother played a witness. Said the actress:
“At first I thought it was a joke. But for Mr. Mitzscherlich it’s a dream come true”.
Cecilia wore a white dress for the ceremony. (Of course she did.)
