(Did I just say that out loud!?)

My Kat is the best cat. also, the handsomest.

Ok, we all know the laws about beastiality in the real world, but what about...

Just kidding, I'm not THAT hard pressed. Sometimes alcohol and an inability to delete messages makes for a bad combination. :)

I frequently tell Sprite that he's my second-favorite pussy.

St00pid cat. I shared my tuna with him and he still didn't keep me company at my desk yesterday, or this morning. So today I didn't share my tuna with him. I still don't think he gets it.

I told him, I'm codependent and I need companionship. And I told him if he doesn't give me the companionship I need, I'm going to get a dog. Even the worst dog is a good companion. I still don't think he gets it.

He needs to stop being such a pussy.

Cats. Feh.

The Internet is definitely a cat place. :)

I like cats. I like dogs too. There will come a season when I have a dog again; I just don't have the time to properly take care of one right now.

Oh, didn't know about that.

Urinary-tract infection's complications lead to the death. Lived 7 years.

Damned unlucky number.

Not enough lives, heh.

The article I read on the subject focused on the owner's significant financial loss as a consequence of the cat's death:

"Pet life insurance exists, but it's a rarely offered product and would be of little help to the owners of a famous pooch or kitty. It's not designed to cover losses related to pets who double as income-generators for their owners."

Hm. These folks gained $700,000 after winning a lawsuit against a coffee company that violated a licensing agreement with them, having to do with the cat.

So, er, I guess if you want to remain financially solvant on the long term, choose a pet that should live on the long term, like a turtle.

OTOH, 'Grumpy Turtle' doesn't exactly inspire much I guess.

The family executed the monetization of Grumpy Cat very well. They made millions selling and defending the brand. They'll continue to make some money, but obviously it'll die down eventually.

Even so, it's doubtful anyone has ever made more money with their pussy.

Certainly not even Annie Sprinkle. You never see her mention anything about her pussy.

Am I going to regret doing a web search for that name?

Maybe?

Frank Zappa said of her that America is better for her efforts, if that helps.
I think one can safely say that she fits into a classification of her own.

The phrase "feminist stripper" is worth a chuckle or two.

Yeah, that sounds like her. Definitely marches to her own drum there.
