This photo from CNN shows Messiah, the cat accidentally issued a line of credit by The Bank of Queensland in Australia.
From the original transcript of Anderson Cooper 360 Degrees:
COOPER: Randi Kaye joins us now with a 360 bulletin -- Randi.
KAYE: Hi there, Anderson.
...To dry land in Australia, where a bank is in a hairy situation. It has apologized for issuing a credit card to Messiah. Messiah happens to be a cat. It's owner applied for the card to test the bank's identity security system. And well, the bank failed. The feline got a credit line of $3,300 U.S. dollars. And Anderson, you know you could buy a whole lot of cat food with all that credit. But the card has been canceled.
COOPER: Quite ridiculous. Randi, thanks.

Thanks for letting me know, Angel and Kirby, that you couldn't find the portion mentioning Messiah. I'll edit my post to include in a quote for people to see. :)
hehe, why can't I get plastic green paper thingy! I need toys, treats etc.
Hmm... .I wonder if he would front me some money?
Hmmm think of all the toys and treat you could buy with that sort of money!
What do they mean "quite ridiculous"?
We cats would be way more responsible with credit cards than people ever could be!
Wow, $3300.00 can get a guy a lot of 'nip!
