From, “Tommaso the cat inherits 10 million euro,” by Sky News (Australia), Dec 13, 2011:
Tommaso, who goes by his pet name 'Tommasino', was left some 10 million euro by his owner Assunta after her death. He also inherited a manor in an elegant suburb on the outskirts of Rome, two apartments in Rome and Milan, various current accounts and a piece of land in Calabria, in the South of Italy.
After months of following the European economic crisis, Italian newspapers ran incredulous headlines about the cat.
'The cat earns a millionaire inheritance' ran one headline. 'The fairy tale of Tommasino the cat from a stray to a millionaire', said another. One newspaper headline read: 'No children or family, the cat inherits 10 million.'
Ponder: What would you do with 10 million euro?
Incredulous: skeptical; expressing disbelief
