The seal entered the home through two cat flaps, Phil Ross, the homeowner, suspected.
A 10-month-old New Zealand fur seal accidentally found its way into a house and ended up terrorizing the family cat.
The seal had entered through the family cat’s cat flap of which there are two, one on the garage door and one on the interior door, Phil explained. And being a marine biologist, Phil said he often studies seals and was disappointed that he wasn’t home when the entire ordeal occurred. "Through winter there tend to be lots of seals at some of my research sites, so I get to see them underwater quite a lot. I try to avoid them on land because they can be fairly grumpy! The big irony of the situation is that this is probably the only family emergency where it would be useful to have a marine biologist at home and I wasn't there.
