The caption on those piglets:
The pig is a traditional German symbol for good luck at the start of a new year.
Isn't eating the pig the thing for good luck?
Where'd they get CAT scan from?... I mean, did they test it on cats? Or does the machine sort of look like a cat?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

That doesn't happen until Oktoberfest.

I really don't want to deal with work today.
Also? If all 3 cats curl up with you on the couch at 11:30 at night, just after you've turned out the main light? If you close your eyes "for just a minute" because it is so cuddly and warm and comfortable?
Do not be surprised to wake up at 7 am still on the couch. Covered in cats.

Calli, I don't know from clock obsessives, but I did live in Thomaston, CT, where the Seth Thomas company was based, for a couple of years. [link]

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here
No eating wrinkly piglets!
But I am thinking about having some bacon....
It is so cold in my living room, because the heat vents the other way (toward the kitchen). I just remembered that last year I put these down throws in the window and it kept it warm, but I think a cat peed on them at some point and they have been discarded.

Wow. Looks like Seth Thomas was a player. Thanks, flea!
