We watched last night's TV show "What Were You Thinking". It featured a
woman who must rank at the very top of misguided, stupid cat owners. At the
beach she takes her cat along with her on her surf board. We saw the poor
wet miserable bedraggled creature hunched down on the board, ears flattened,
hanging on for dear life. But it got worse. Then she tossed her cat
overboard and it paddled desperately for shore, but apparently she drags it
back and makes it do it again to the point of exhaustion, saying that the
cat loves to swim! Any suggestions for what we should do with the woman,
after we rescue the cat?



Take her out past the three mile limit, toss HER overboard, and let HER
swim for shore? Sure, cats CAN swim, if they have to - I think most
mammals can - but why force them to?

What about the problem of the cat having to lick the SALT water out of it's
fur? Does she give the cat a post-surfing bath? And how traumatic is that
for the poor creature?
