It was my cat that kept us free from any more Terrorist attacks
Shortly after 9/11 I purchased a Calico kitten. Since the time I purchased the kitten there have not been any successful attacks on US soil.

10. Not only that, tihe OP is violating a DU rule
You just don't mention kittens or puppies without posting pix. We can cut some slack on adult cats and dogs, though.

20. When was that kitty born?
I suppose you are going to tell us (s)he had no advanced notice of the attacks even with the many very specific warnings?

Could (s)he possibly have acted sooner?

23. WTF?!?! C'mon now - Get real!
You post a thread about a kitten and don't include a picture of said kitten?

Or maybe you must keep her identity secret for national security purposes?????

Is she fixed? I know- Don't ask, don't tell........ :)

26. Pirates too....
The rise in high seas piracy since 9/11 is inversely related to the number of domestic terror attacks.

27. Oh please! Your cat is a pussy and can't stand water let alone water boarding!
Besides, being calico and heavier than muslin, it's worse than a terrorist and therefore off to Gitmo with it!

cal·i·co (kl-k)
n. pl. cal·i·coes or cal·i·cos
1.
a. A coarse, brightly printed cloth.
b. Chiefly British A plain white cotton cloth, heavier than muslin.
2. An animal, such as a cat, having a coat that is mottled in tones of white with red and black.

32. Bullshit. What about the anthrax attacks? Has your cat tracked down the guilty parties?
I think that cat needs to be litter-boarded.

42. Cats keep the Jabberwock at bay...
"What? What are jabberwocks?"

"Big, nasty, man-eating beasts that snatch people out of their beds through the window on dark, foggy nights."

"Haven't seen any of them."

"See--cats work great, don't they?"
