You know, the basic stuff.

"Just puked everywhere. LOL!"
"Ripped up couch... going for the beds next. LOL!"
And the classic, "Suffocating owner while he sleeps. LOL!"

I'm a cat lover, but this one boggles the mind.

It reminds me of the old joke about the speech programs with primates and translations of their sign language at times and such "Bananna pretty, want Bannana".

Oh yes, we've spent billions of dollars to speak to animals, what amazing secrets they can tell us. Things we never imagined. :p

I'm still waiting for communications with the "hyper intelligent dolphins" to find out "I like to swim, Nets Bad, fish tasty". >:)

This does not improve my life in any way.

In fact, I'm not sure whose life it's supposed to improve.

Is this even viable as amusement for more than a minute?

Aha; I knew it! There's no way any human intelligence would want a black actor playing Spider-Man. I'm on to you, Sony, and your little kitties.

A most interesting advancement in Twitter Technology. Though I am more interested in the people who would buy something like this. It's kind of a cute idea, at least during a very non-serious conversation with friends. To see it as a reality though, leaves me wondering. Is there really a market for this sort of thing? In that case, maybe there will soon be a patent on a device that updates your status for you, depending on what you are doing. In case you don't have the time to post a Twitter comment about when you took your lunch break XD.

Awww, so cute~!

..Wait, what? Cats using Twitter? ..Why?

Phase 1: Cats learn to use Twitter
Phase 2: Cats begin to develop internet speak
Phase 3: Cats slowly take over internet
Phase 4: Cats take over Earth

..Is no one else seeing the evidence!? <_<
There's only one thing holding cats back from world domination.


O.T. Well, this is much better than putting dogs on Twitter.

ProKitten: just woke up from a 20 hour sleep, decided best to ignore whatever my owner says to me.

ProKitten: hehe, just stuck my wet nose on owners lips, they found it cute, good luck waking up tomorrow with worms!

The device, developed in conjunction with the University of Tokyo [http://www.u-tokyo.ac.jp/index_e.html], weighs a maximum of five percent of a cat's total weight and is worn like a collar, so cats won't "refuse it and take it off."
Yeah, right. One of my cats goes absolutely berserk when you put anything around her neck. Weight has nothing to do with it. The other one pretends not to mind, but somehow always comes home without anything around his neck the next day.

Stupid idiots! They could have put all of that money towards Half Life 2: Episode 3! Seriously though, what is the point of it?
