...And then the judge (who was a finely groomed Cheshire) interrupted for a moment and the defendant noticing he was the only mouse in a court full of felines apprehended his doom...

alrighty then... movin' right along... :)

LOL funny! "Tabby, please put your paw on the Bible and swear after me, meow, meow meow.... meow..."

Astounding, but far from surprising really. I do hope they show up with their cat. I'd like to see someone try to exact an oath! "Do you swear, bla bla bla?". "Meow mrrow."

Which is an interesting choice of words;-). Like an oxymoron.

I have no idea what would give that impression!

Here kitty kitty!

No doubt in my mind.

I wanted a bar of lye soap and a stiff bristled brush to really get feeling clean again after. ;-)

Beagles are amazingly smart and stubborn enough to actually stand for their principles.

The cat will likely be more intelligent than most low information voters. My beagle would do better in congress than many congressmen

Well my roommate has a job with high security-clearance. The last thing he needed was me down at the federal courthouse foaming at the mouth about how none of the questions were any of their business. I felt sorry for the poor guy, Lol Speaking of...I bet they want these people to show up with the cat so they can arrest them.

yeah, my wife was afraid we'd get in trouble if we didn't fill in all the blanks... personally I'd have rather not done anything more than name.. anything beyond that is government intrusion and wrong. I know what you mean about yuck feeling after filling it out..

Caligula marched his horse into the Senate and declared he would make him Consul... Makes as much sense... It is widely held that Caligula was insane...

you had to bring up caligula didn't ya

I think the cats drug into court are awake...unlike some people....

If I am entitled to a jury of my peers and I see cats on the jury does that mean I am a ....

There wasn't a question on the 2010 census asking about pets. They put their cat in the only section you can put names because they were being smart ass's.

In the future, a cat will not be deprived of his right to serve on a jury. If you know the science fiction of L. Neil Smith, then bionically enhanced animals are acceptable. Long ago, in the "Basic Principles of Objectivism" lectures, Nathaniel Branden answered the question of "rational Martians." Any sentient, volitional being must be accorded their rights.

(I also agree that our cat likes television --- and knows his selfish interests. He is a being of few but deep values.)
