I would comment on this whole thing, especially since my tastes and past are somehow referenced in the post, but I am afraid that my opinion(s) would be misconstrued as being supportive of malbehavior and/or potentially felonious acts. The faster you live, the faster you die. Never seen it work out any different. This girl has some weighty, yet surprisingly nimble, balls. I certainly hope that all works out for her. The world needs more like her to balance the stiff shit out.

i'm actually a friend of cat's & couldn't believe this happened! it was a really dumb thing for her to do but she's honestly very sweetest & super talented...& she did a really stupid, thoughtless thing. i just hope she's okay out there. worried about her.

At least they didn't send her to Town Lake.

Wow. This story completely fascinates me. I'd never heard of Cat Chow, but I checked out her online gallery -- her work is wonderful. I hope they let her go with just a slap on the wrist, but somehow I doubt she'll get that lucky. We should start a "Free Cat" campaign. I find it more than a little alarming that she's been in jail for 5 days, and it's just now making the news.
