| | Have you seen these automatic dog and cat washers? I guess they have been around in Europe for a while but I had never seen them before. What a crack up. It's like a washing machine for pets. The dogs seem to take in in stride but the cats are another story. Everybody knows cats hate water. It seems kind of mean to put a cat in there albiet rather funny when you add background music to it.
If you are disturbed by the kitty video go here. And here is the PetSpa website.

| | Way cool. I so want one of these near me.
I have a dog that needs bathing and a cat that needs harassing.
Seriously, I want one.

| | I just knew the cat would hate it. I've never seen a cat that liked to be bathed
Most dogs will tolerate it. But, I've seen some dogs that would really love this machine.

| | I'm with you Bill. I welcome any and all cat torture videos.
We used to have a cat, Guido, who liked water so much that he would jump on the sink counter and get in the dish water while we were washing dishes. I liked THAT cat because he thought he was a dog. Quote:

| | | I tolerate cats. I love my dogs. My cat is about to drive me nuts. If I put her in one of those things, she would be getting back at me for a least a year by destroying more furniture, throwing up furballs and being a genearl nuisance.

| | Speaking as one who likes both cats and dogs more or less equally...
I'm sure you've all heard the story about the difference between cats and dogs. People feed their dog, pet their dog, and otherwise care for the needs of the dog. The dog thinks, "Wow, they must be gods!"
People feed their cat, pet their cat, and otherwise care for the needs of the cat. The cat thinks, "Wow, I must me a god!" I think that sometimes we prefer dogs because we see them in such a favorable light and hope others see us in a similar fashion -- i.e. humble, friendly, and fun to be around. And we dislike cats because they generally behave as we know ourselves to be -- i.e. proud, selfish, and barely tolerant of other beings.
**Throw small stones, please.**

Just an observation I made. I'm even thinking of using it as a sermon illustration.
I'm sure everyone associated with the PB has a proper view of themselves in light of Scripture.
