Man Invents Cat Toilet Seat
<snip>

OKLAHOMA CITY -- An invention by a man seeks to eliminate litter box odor by toilet training household cats. As head of Evolve Products, manufacturer of The Feline Evolution CatSeat, Kevin Rymer accepted an award Monday from a national trade magazine.

Pet Products News selected the CatSeat for its 2003 Editor's Choice Award, which was presented during a news conference at the Oklahoma Department of Commerce.

"The CatSeat was selected because it could revolutionize every American home with a cat," said Matt Keller, director of advertising for the magazine.

David Hinkle, ODC official, said Evolve Products is located at the Fred Jones Development Center in downtown Oklahoma City and has been helped through the state's small business "incubator" program.

The program certifies companies for tax credits and provides a wide range of services, from advice on obtaining patents to marketing strategies.

8. these were on the market at least in 1984 or before
my GF at the time got one.

Nasty side effect is....the cat also pooped IN THE SINK including the kitchen sink! Not just the toilet.

I wonder if this guy's invention is different than that one (yes, i am too lazy to click on the link)

Haha. Too funny. No severed penises this week. You're slipping, Matcom.

No word on whether the editors of Pet Products News tested the seat themselves.
