Kim Richards, former star of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills and now the apparent lead in her own cat-themed soap opera, had a weekend to remember—or maybe forget, depending on how you look at it. The LAPD paid her a visit after what can only be described as a plot twist worthy of daytime television.
ACT I: THE CASE OF THE CATNAPPED, THEN UN-NAPPED CAT
Kim reportedly called the police, declaring her beloved feline had been cat-napped. A devastating scenario, right? Wrong. Because this story comes with a twist—apparently, the mysterious culprit returned the cat. Why? Who knows! Maybe they just didn’t like litter box duty. Or maybe the cat staged its own daring escape only to realize life on the streets wasn’t for them. Either way, the cops showed up to investigate… well, nothing, really.
But Kim wasn’t done. As if inspired by a dramatic Bravo reunion episode, she started unloading her grievances about her sister, Kyle Richards. At this point, the police likely thought, “This isn’t a cat burglary—it’s family drama gone feral.”
ACT II: WHEN COPS CALL THE SHRINKS
Realizing this cat-tastrophe was getting out of hand, officers summoned the mental health squad to evaluate Kim. According to TMZ’s sources, the experts decided she didn’t meet the criteria for a psychiatric hold. Translation: she wasn’t a danger to herself, others, or the cat.
Paramedics also dropped by, probably thinking they were responding to a medical emergency but left scratching their heads and empty-handed. Nobody needed an ambulance, but you know who could’ve used a little TLC? The LAPD officers who walked into this family-meets-feline melodrama.
ACT III: FLASHBACKS TO SEPTEMBER
For those who’ve been following Kim’s real-life saga, this wasn’t her first run-in with a psych evaluation. Back in September, she was reportedly placed on a 5150 hold after causing a scene at an L.A. hotel. Apparently, she refused to leave when asked. What was she doing there? Reenacting scenes from Home Alone?
And let’s not forget the time neighbors called the cops when Kim set up camp at Kyle Richards’ house. Even Kyle reportedly didn’t want her there, leaving everyone wondering if this was just another plotline for RHOBH: Family Feud Edition.
WHERE THINGS STAND NOW
As of this latest episode, the Richards family is apparently still on a communication hiatus. Sources say they’ve cut Kim off in hopes of nudging her toward sobriety, but it sounds like sobriety isn’t the only thing Kim’s been dodging lately.
And what about the cat? We don’t know, but if that furball could talk, it would probably sell its story to TMZ.
We reached out to Kim for comment, but so far, radio silence. Perhaps she’s busy auditioning for Cats: The Musical. Or maybe she’s planning her next headline-grabbing adventure. Either way, stay tuned. This saga isn’t over yet.
