Gone fishin’

Legend has it that late in his life, a syphilis-ravaged Al Capone liked to while away the hours by fishing in his swimming pool. And I’m reminded of that story every time I look at this photo:

  1. you could probably nip that behavior in the bud by flushing every once in a while.

  2. There is a reason that I refer to said object as “the kitty jacuzzi” and it’s closely related to the reason I keep the lid down.

    Clancy will, sooner or later, fall in. Which will be hilarious. But only momentarily, because it will be immediately followed by a cat soaked in toilet water running laps over all your furniture.

    Don’t ask me how I know this.

  3. How bad is it when your cat is more popular on your blog than you are? :)
