REAL LIFE NEWS: PLEASE LOOK AFTER YOUR CAT

by Hazed

Did you know that if you own a cat, you need to feed it? From the Department of Stating the Bleeding Obvious, also known as the Scottish government, comes a code of practice on cat welfare. It contains such amazing facts as: "different cats will have different needs". You don't say. And "some cats are naturally more confident than others." Really? And "a cat that is not used to people may hiss, spit or lash out when cornered." Mmmm.

Right now, the code is only a draft, so concerned cat-lovers can put their oar in and make sure this exhaustive code coves every single aspect of caring for a feline friend.

I can't see anything in the code about allowing cats to play multi-player games... what an oversight!

More details in this story from The Register, which contains a link to the incredibly long and detailed document itself.
