I have been too serious and peed off with the awfulnesses of the world and A2k of late - it is time for some serious paranoia.


If cats had opposeable thumbs would it be the end of life as we know it on this planet?

Would it be good, bad?

Would we survive as a species?

Would they evolve - and how???


Would they be nice to us?

or not?


Would they be good?

or bad?



Oh - I just added the last picture cos I am on MEAN antibiotics, and I have no intestinal flora left - that ain't good.......

Normally I do all those things with gay abandon, but now I can't .....





Anyhoo - thoughts?





(And - if any damn Moderator tries to move this to pets, I will sooooo start a revolution, ok? I mean it - I can't do the things above - I am ready to pop!)

I'm having a bit of a panic. I want to post, but I can't think of anything funny to say.

It is actually my thesis that the Cat family has been manipulating the evolution of the Ape family in order to produce a complient sub-species capable of the canning and serving of cat food. Not only that, but one that is HAPPY to do it!!

Hmmmmmm - so the poor lions and such are our pussies' under-evolved redneck cousins, so to speak?

Hmmmmmmmmm.....


Wabbits are cuter though, aren't we? (Gazes up at Stilly from under lashes winsomely....)

OK - the thesis continues....

Now it is not to say that cats couldn't have independently invented..

Well, fif the cat had opposable thumbs, I wouldn't have to feed him, he could just help him self. In that respect, he could change his own litter, too!
