For feline lovers- this will make your day. . . .

Jennifer and Jim kept getting huge water bills. They knew
beyond a doubt that the bills weren't representative of their
actual usage, and no matter how they tried to conserve, the high bills
continued. Although they could see nothing wrong, they had everything checked for leaks or problems: the water meter, outdoor pipes, indoor pipes, underground pipes, faucets, toilets, washer, ice maker, etc., all to no avail.

One day Jim was sick and stayed home in bed, but kept he hearing water running downstairs. He finally got out of his sick bed to investigate, and stumbled onto the cause of the bills. Apparently this was happening all day long when they were not at home.
Knowing that few would believe him, he taped a segment of the 'problem' for posterity:

Reminded me of that movie with Ben Stiller, Meet the Fockers with Jigsy the Cat who was potty-trained! Now if only we could get Max at Second Street to flush!

Cat Stuck in a Box.

I think this is the same cat as the Sliding Box Cat. It sure is a cutie.
