Must’ve been some mistake somewhere. Still and all, congrats!

And that poor cat’s owners will probably be astonished when that kitten tries to kill them in their sleep.

Of course PZ is human; he just has a cephalopod fetish. He loves to study them and loves to eat them (well, some of them). I think the cat would be safe. If you can teach it to swim I’m sure PZ would want one.

This must be the source for all the cat viruses that are killing off sea mammals after owners flush wastes down toilets.
