Case One: The Plaintiff wants to give “Mousey Tongue”- the cat that he shared with his wife- a Viking funeral. He has spent weeks building a small boat that will be set ablaze with the cat inside and has already received permission from their gated community to send Mousey Tongue into the great beyond in the pond adjacent to their golf course. His wife has other plans. The Defendant wants the cat to be interred in the pet mausoleum that she and her father built when she was a girl and where they’ve buried all her childhood pets. Case Two: The Plaintiff has a dog she believes to be the reincarnation of her late husband. Since she considers him to be family, she wants to add him to her health insurance as a spouse. The Defendant, the owner of a small kombucha business that employs the Plaintiff, is certain that pet insurance doesn’t cover aggressive treatment for her late husband’s/new Pomeranian’s heart condition. He has all his necessary paperwork and believes it’s a pretty clear-cut case of insurance fraud.
