quote:

Acoustic Kitty was a CIA project launched by the Directorate of Science & Technology in the 1960s attempting to use cats in spy missions, intended to spy on the Kremlin and Soviet embassies, recording the links between the buildings in the area. A battery and a microphone were implanted into a cat and an antenna into its tail. This would allow the cats to innocuously record and transmit sound from their surroundings... Surgical and training expenses are thought to have amounted to over $25 million.

They tested multiple cats, but it didn't work very well because the cats wouldn't behave as they wanted.

Hello I have new Mr. Carson pictures






He is very silly and likes to squiggle around on the bed to get comfortable.

Also here's the final addition to my cat bro squad. His name is Professor, and he does literally nothing all day long. He's either sleeping or moving to a new spot to sleep.



Front paw not fully tucked in, 8/10


Boop (he does not like nose boops or anything that doesn't involve sleeping)

This is some serious argy-bargy!

Bingley is having a very hard morning. The drat sunbeam keeps moving so he has to get up and move, fall back asleep and then get up and move. Such a hard life.

Archie, on the other hand, is not having a hard morning. He has rediscovered the cubby on the cat tree and has been there for the past 3 hours.

Is Bingley smart enough like some cats I've known to always lie at the leading edge of the beam so that there's maximum lying time until he has to move again?

No, no he's not. He moves just enough to be in the beam but not the far edge.

Shifty Pony, I love stealing the warms.

in places where the vikings settled/raided there are distinct spikes in the proportion of cats which are orange. apparently the vikings liked them

Misty was the reverse of the sunbeam chaser out on our back porch because direct sunlight in the Australian sun was too much for her dark fur, but the dark stone brick ground would absorb heat really well and stay super warm, so she'd actually lie on the hot stone in the shade and then the sun would encroach on her and she'd have to move to catch up with the shadebeam.
