Fake cat fun at work
I have a fake cat like the one Pam Shirk has. I finally took it to work
and put it on a notepad on my desk. I have had lots of people stop and ask, "Is it real?" I had one lady afraid to pet it in case it was taxidermy. I had to assure her that it had "never, at any time been alive," before she would touch it. I did have to take the batteries out because the motor running sounds like a death rattle - I suppose I should open it up and see what needs to be cleaned. In the mean time, it's a lot of fun seeing peoples' "Is it real? It looks so real!" reactions. Here's where I got mine (I've got the grey Siamese one): http://www.perfectpetzzz.com/Product.../Default.aspx/ Hugs and Purrs, Mark |

Here's where I got mine (I've got the grey Siamese one): http://www.perfectpetzzz.com/Product.../Default.aspx/ That looks like a fake cat I once saw "sleeping" in a real cat bed, on the counter at my vet's office. It was breathing. Well, its chest area went up and down. I wasn't sure whether it was real or not at first, but a close examination of the face made it more obvious. LOL at your co-worker who was afraid to touch it in case it used to be a live cat. I admit that a stuffed cat is a pretty weird thing. There's a store in my area that sells a lot of odd things, including live snakes and live mice (for the snakes). And lots of taxidermy - mostly wild animals, but there's a cat right next to the entrance and it was almost the first thing I saw. -- Joyce Teach a child to be polite and courteous in the home and, when he grows up, he'll never be able to merge his car onto a freeway. |

I have one that sits on the shelf in my office complete with it's own bed- virtually every new member of staff on first seeing it has asked if it is a real kitten Lesley Slave of the Fabulous Furballs |

So what do we really want to wear to work? At first thought, most ofus would say, "It would be really cool if we could wear jeans to work all thetime. After all, I paid just as much for my jeans as I paid for that outfit Iwore to work yesterday. | [email protected] | Cat health & behaviour | 0 | April 25th 08 09:42 PM |
