A widow from the Bronx has inherited his two cats $ 300 000.
In his will, the woman said that the money needs to provide for her Pets, Troy and Tiger, a decent life, and she wants to know that cats don’t get into the cells, they will care for and love.
Especially lucky Tiger. Once a domestic cat, he lives a full life in Sunny Ocala, Florida, eating good food Fancy Feast with a taste of filet Mignon and sleeping in a plush basket with silk lining.
«He deserves it,» said Dahlia Grisel, a former assistant in the home of the late Ellen Frey-Wouters, and now the guardian of the tiger. «He’s a great cat.»
Mrs. Frey-Wouters, a native of the Netherlands who worked in the United Nations, died in 2015 at the age of 88 years. Her husband, a Professor at Brooklyn College, died in 1989, and the only child in childhood died in infancy.
«The cats were to her as children,» said Grizel.
Lawyer Irwin Fingerit was surprised when the Frey-Wouters showed a desire to leave a tidy sum to their seals.
«I told her that I don’t think cats need 300 000 dollars, and mentioned the case, when one woman left her dog inherited $ 65,000 to the dog and become a kind of joke,» said Fangit in 2016 during a hearing in the matter of inheritance.
«But Mrs. Frey-Wouters insisted on it, she wanted to make sure her cats will be taken care of».
The second cat, Troy, lives with Rita Pokhyla, another assistant Ellen Frey-Wouters. Pokhyla, which he received from his former employer’s inheritance in the amount of $ 50,000, refused to tell the New York Post about Three, referring to the right of the cat on the «private life».
When cats die, the remainder of their inheritance will go to my only living relative — the sister of Frey-Wouters, who lives in the Netherlands. The rest of her property, which is estimated at $ 3 million, was divided between the two assistants at home, charity organizations and advocates Frey-Wouters.
