Your Cat Has Uses?

[catcul]

One Green Planet has 11 pictures of cats being useful.

They would make a nice warm scarf.

Poodles has tried to be a laptop warmer but so far, while adorable and furry, it's kinda inconvenient when you're trying to type and all of a sudden, you have feet walking across your keys.

And speaking of the feline fedoras, I did have a lovely brownish gray Squirrel model some years ago.

The lap-cat tray table also serves as a vibrating Lap Warmer.

My friend's cat wanted to be useful...by lying across their suitcase in a way that said "No mama don't leave me!" (Owners got married on the weekend, they're now on their honeymoon)

Maybe the cat wanted to come with them?

I'll have to check out the link later, but my cat makes a great self-warming and sometimes massaging scarf, too.

Also:

• finder of things that you drop on the floor (pills, pins, etc.)
• disposal unit of tasty things that fall on the floor

My late cat was a very effective flyswatter. He used to catch them out of mid-air. And then eat them.

Heh, we think so. He's a rescue cat, adopted by friend and his now wife. He has so far adopted the roles of:

-Leg warmer.
-Laptop warmer.
-Clothes warmer.
-Suitcase protector.

Here's a picture:

Icon kitty used to make an excellent foot rest in his younger days. These days he wants to snuggle and help me type.

If the cat had been lying across the GUY's suitcase, it might just have misunderstood the situation. After all, on your honeymoon you're supposed to get some (term that can also mean a cat).

Actually, I think he just wanted a rub. Friends are wine drinkers, although not heavy ones.

*cat sitting to my left in his meatloaf* Cats sure are man's REAL best friend aren't they? Though until we got one a few years ago I only liked the kind of Cats that play basketball!

We had high hopes for Baxter who, on just his second day with us in his new forever home, ate a spider -- Free pest control!

But no. He's the original 'fraidy cat; his world is full of secret, private terrors and he's afraid of everything. Timmy on the other hand... He investigated the auto-feeder, and we're sure he'll figure out a way to reprogram it. He investigated the aquarium, and we fully expect to find him in there, wearing a miniature wetsuit -- because he's smart enough to obtain one, for one, and smart enough to figure out how to put it on, for another.

The irony here is that Timmy is named after the character on South Park because he quite literally bit the hand the feeds him, when I had to try to drag him out from under the bed. And yet he ended up being the one that will take over the world if he ever makes it out the front door.
