This is a cat that lives with me:
I found him alongside a river near my home. He was waiting in a parking lot surrounded by thick woods. I saw him while riding my bicycle and made friends. Later I returned with my car and brought him into my family. Before I permitted him into my house I demanded that his testicles be removed and he compliedas i had restrained him therefore giving him no choice in the matter. I can't say I would be as happy with the same decision if it were my testicles involved but I am not troubled by this decision. This could be a picture of the river where I found this cat:
The cat has no responsibilities and does what he wants to when he does it. His only impedemints are the whims of the other family members—to open doors, provide food and water and a warm place to sleep. I suppose he does have a responsibility of keeping the house free of vermin and it should be noted that there appears to be no vermin of any sort near our living quarters but I have noticed that other people without cats do not appear to be inundated with beavers or other rodents.
It is speculated that there is a type of parasite that infects cats and mice. As part of it's life cycle this virus causes a change in behavior that would make mice more likely to be bold, and therefore consumed by a lazy cat. It is also quite possible that this same organism also infects humans and alters their behavior in such a way as to allow a cat—which would otherwise be classified as useless vermin—to be human companions.
But this parasite would actually do more—it would actually make us humans want to make life better for our cat masters who then provide them their perfect host. Once this parasite took hold in our brainstems it would guide our intellect to advance the science of man to actually benefit cats, things like indoor plumbing, central heating and really tasty meats packed away in tin cans. This could be a picture of something civilization did just for cats:
Highways and railroads were constructed so that cats could be carted around more easily and allow a wider distribution of the parasite. It should be noted that the space program wasn't a part of this but rather the fancy of some silly humans. There are no vermin in space. Space exploration would be much quicker if there were, say, parakeets and packets of tuna fish in orbit.
