You just have to make sure you just pull together some fur and staple it to that. This of course works best with uncooked bacon. Use lots of staples. Be carefull not to staple directly to the skin of the cat as they hate that and it could result in injury to yourself. It also causes the cat to be increasingly slippery thus making it more difficult to place enough staples.

I knew I would like it from her intro acknowledging Josephine Tey, Dorothy Sayers and Peter Dickinson as influences. It is beautifully written, engrossing and powerful.

Maybe making bacon- armor for the cat, complete with the viking hat!

So if you taped Bacon to the cat and then called the police and reported yourself, you’d knock out two items at once! If you then showered to get the fur & bacon grease off, that’s 3….

This puts you right up there with whoever first throught to put pancakes on their bunny.

I’ve been trying to find my own way to achieve Internet Greatness today using my Yorkshire Terrier. At first I thought perhaps I could find a larger dog to tape him to, but this will not do–I need breakfast food.

My options so far:

Stud his face with Cap’n Crunch
Tape sausage links to his ears
Place a fried egg on his head
Make a Ceerios necklace.

I approached him with these various implements of destruction, but as you can see he wasn’t interested.

If he doesn’t smarten up and take one for the team I’m duct-taping him to a rottweiler, I swear.

I don’t usually do that (fangirl emails, I mean).
