It turns out the feathered swimmer wasn't thrilled about having its activity interrupted and tried to escape by flapping its wings furiously. Mimi got soaked and to make matters worse, a cat was very interested in getting its paws on the chicken – though thankfully, it had no success.

All in all, a clucking disaster was avoided!
