Think for a moment about getting that tail into that tail-sleeve, nevermind the paws and feet. All the cans of sea-kitteh in the world wouldn’t bribe the land-bass I’ve known.
I would say this is an appropriate thread to bring up a cat story? Almost a year ago, this little kitten appeared at our window. We already have TWO cats (and one on-loan from my BIL while he’s in Afghanistan) so I said absolutely NOT. No way. This little cat was rather determined, though. It would sit outside whatever window’s room we were in. If the kids went playing in the woods, kitty would follow. Like a DOG. Well, of course, you know eventually the cat went from OC (outside cat) to IC.
Still, that cat though follows the kids around outside. When we went to a party next door (about a quarter mile away) it followed us there, mingled with the guests, then when we left, it returned with us. When the kids go swimming, the cat gets so freaked out (mewing and etc from shore) it jumped in AFTER them once.
And,now it’s winter and my son spent an afternoon in the 12 inches of snow building a snowfort. Guess who was out there with him? Yes, this cat. Hanging out in a snow fort.
I had a thought that perhaps this cat is my beloved dog Greta reincarnated.
Carin, that’s interesting. Our water cat, the one that goes into the lake to fish, just died over the holidays, hit by a car. Poor little Suzie, the owl-headed.
A;though I’m conflicted; cats have 30 teeth but only 4 molars because their little mouthies are built for tearing and ripping, all all they get around here to tear and rip is kibble…am I screwing with evolution here?

Brilliant!
Good to see you, Fausta. I stumbled on it. Serendipity.
Meantime, according to this (h/t Jawa Rpt.) the EU is busy creating a black market for 100W incandescent lightbulbs. More brilliance!
That’s a strange thing to invent a “black market” for.

I guess in something of a reversal, Black is the new Lightbringer, Dan.

Crap.
One thing I know about my cats is that they would not follow me out to a snow-fort.
If I’m somewhere where there is something cushiony stuffed with feathers, they are in like Flynn.
mine would probably follow me out to a snow-fort if I had food.
Mine would follow me to the outmost posts of the universe if I had a handful of kitty treats.

Not unless the furniture is off limits.
I suppose one could enter the obligatory “wet pussy” joke, but not me.
No sir!
OK. I’ll step up.

Dear Denis,
Your soulful prose is rather opaque. Please, tell us more.
