Funny things kids do...

We got our cat drunk on bourbon. She ran around the house like crazy for
half an hour then slept til the next day. Mom never found out, and the cat
survived and lived to the ripe old age of 21!

PS: My brothers and I are all cat-lovers to this day.

was like. When my mom came back home, she nearly had a heart
attack. Can anyone recall an experience funnier than that?

This wasn't me... But my brother once glued our cat to our front door. She actually stuck there
quite well.

When I was young, like 3 or 4, I had to go to the bathroom. Mom was inside.
I was yelling at the door, "I have to go to the bathroom." Everyone in the
neighborhood knew I had to go, except mom. A few minutes later, I said: "I
have to go to the bathroom. Oops, too late."

This reminds me of something I once read in a book by humorist P.J. O'Rourke.
It went something like this:

"People used to get a kick out of blowing marijuana smoke into their cat's face
and watch them 'get mellow'. However, under no circumstances should you give
your cat cocaine. If you do, it will run around the living room at lightning
speed, shred your drapes, yowl at the moon, and then wait until you've passed
out and try to find something to help it sleep."

I'm not sure if O'Rourke spoke from direct experience or not, and I certainly
have none in this area, having never done drugs OR owned a cat.
