Groan.
I would agree with you Eann, P'ter's Barque is worse than his byte. It is what he types that you need to worry about.

Of course they do. That is why cats have humans. So the humans can do the all the grunt work and cats can manage things (humans).

I think the subject was a new book about cats that barque instead of byte. But if you annoy them, you could still get a catnip!

I just read a short detective story where a burlger/murderer gets caught because his victim's cat scatched him and he got Cat-scratch Fever.

I just read a true story where the murderer's cat's fur was found on the body of the victim and helped convict the murderer. I hope someone at least took the cat in when they sent his master to jail.

Just getting back to it after almost six months of mental inactivity while I heal from having both knees replaced (yes, P'ter, with other knee bits--not with kumquats or something). A cat lady friend (I belong to a site that is subscribed to by many many cat ladies, some even crazier than me) sent me a little book called 100 Cats Who Changed the World or something like that and Snowball, the first cat to have his fur used as evidence in a murder case, was one of the early cats mentioned.
