Seriously? Apparently so - some people have actually broken the cat-leash barrier. Here is the editorial review of the official guide to walking your cat:
Walk Your Cat - The Complete Guide is written for indoor cat owners who want to give their cats access to the outdoors by taking them for walks on a leash. While it is often believed that cats can’t be leash-trained, Walk Your Cat shows that taking your cat for a walk does not have to be a drag. This book is unique in that the authors have developed a thorough, easy-to-follow approach to walking cats that is solidly grounded in the current scientific understanding of feline behavior. Following their approach, you can allow your cats to enjoy a full range of natural behaviors while on walks, making their lives richer and healthier. But, Walk Your Cat is more than just a training guide. Getting to the heart of feline behavior to show you how cats can be leash-trained, the book offers readers a new window into the inner lives of their cats–as well as insights into the important and natural role that walks on a leash have to play in the life of the modern indoor cat.

A speeding bullet — nickel-colored and hairy — slammed into me while I was showering the other day.
My new cat, it turns out, loves water. She’ll seek it out any time, any place.
It was more than just a little startling the first time she swan-dived into standing water, dashed under the shower for a moment, and then departed in a soaking streak. That’s her daily practice now — joining me for a quick drenching. She doesn’t seem to have any interest in swimming. A quick in-and-out thing is her preference.

Does your dog need a cell phone? Does your cat need a translation dictionary? Some gadget makers clearly think so. Check out PC World’s article rounding up the top of the dogpile (sorry) of gadgets made for your pets.
Some of these are pretty neat. I like the idea of a webcam attached to your pet’s collar if you just want to see the kind of trouble he gets up to when you’re not around. But some of these ideas I think need a little refining. For example, I can vouch that my neighbor friend’s Litter-Robot makes such a racket when it’s running that her cats are terrified to go near it. Frankly, I’m terrified to go near it. At seemingly random intervals it makes a noise that sounds like Sauron eating a car.
I can’t be the only one who’s noticed this.
Also not sure how much use I could get out of an emotional reader for my cat. She only has one mood: “peril”.
