Every year the Saskatchewan RCMP releases a list of the most unusual calls to the 911 dispatch centre. Not only are these calls unusual but they also highlight the inappropriate use of the 911 service. Despite the misuse of the 911 emergency line, some of the requests for help were quite funny.

Directly from the Saskatchewan RCMP, here are the most unusual calls to 911 dispatch:

10. Who are you? A concerned individual called 911 to advise that they didn’t recognize someone on their social media friend list.

9. Spick and span: A frustrated individual called to complain that their parents were forcing them to clean their room.

8. Stop stressing meowt: A caller advised that a fox was wandering the neighbourhood and scaring a local cat.

7. To bee or not to bee: 911 dispatchers received a call from a person saying that they had a problem with bees in their home.

6. Tech support: A concerned individual called 911 to ask for help unlocking their cell phone.

5. Litter bug: An individual called 911 to report that someone had thrown their ice cream on the ground.

4. Cut the cat-itude: A caller advised that their cat was being mean to them and they were hoping an officer would come and help with the situation.

3. Loads of fun: 911 dispatchers received a call from a person who was having trouble with their washing machine.

2. I’m counting on you: An individual called 911 asking for help on a math equation as they didn’t want to fail their test in the morning.

1. Party’s over: 911 dispatchers received a call from an individual saying that their tambourine was taken from a party they attended.
