Btw, what's her name?

I don't intend to "keep" her so no name... and it's been too recent an affair for me to looking that.... been only 3 months or so.


But does she intend to keep you? That's what matters!

Timeshare kitties are the best kind of cat ;)

German electronics magazine Funkschau published an article about the cat battery, many years ago. Given that cats usually develop a strong repellant force when they're brought near each other, the author concluded that there has to be electricity involved. So, if you attach them to each other you get a battery. The rest should be obvious from the illustrations...

"Human, open the door!"

In the summer, he's half that size. This winter he's been a lot more inside, and consequently, doesn't wear as thick a coat. Best hunter we've had. Field voles practically every day in the summer. His grandma supposedly was a Norwegian forest cat, so that's where his instincts are coming from, I think.

No need for 2 cats, strap a slice of buttered toast on the back of a cat ,and drop the cat ,as a cat always lands feet first and toast lands buttered side down the opposing forces will cause the cat-toast combination to spin above ground

The battery idea won’t work. All cats are positively charged: naturally, they are cations!

If you rub the plastic rod with a cat to get a negatively charged rod, and a lucite rod with silk to get a negatively charged rod, what happens when you rub a cat with silk?

This?



Or this?



And if the cat's pyjamas are the best thing ever, does that mean they are silk (like all the best pyjamas)?
Anybody got a syringe I can use to squeeze the magic smoke back into this?

It's the first thing I see when I wake up. And I'm not talking about the cat.

In my experience, that’s what happens when you bathe one without first trimming his/her claws.

Those are pussy cats! Real cats go outside no matter what. One the cats at my parents used to come back home so soaking wet he left a trail of water through the house. We had to catch him at the door and use a towel.
There are small lies, big lies and then there is what is on the screen of your oscilloscope.

There's certainly an art to it. One tenant needed is courage.

... Real cats go outside no matter what...

We have two cats.
One will go outside quite happily no matter how heavy the rain is falling.
One will not even venture outside if he is going to get his pretty little paws damp from the morning dew on the grass.
Every cat is different...
Where are we going, and why are we in a handbasket?

It's comedy, not a serious cooking howto.

The cheese at least is very artificial, the real stuff isn't packaged in plastic like that.
