The Cat Dysfunction Diet
July 27th, 2005I just read this article (thanks, Bridget), and I have a brilliant idea that will help all of mankind (thus my quickness to publish it, rather than hoard it and become the next John Basedow). We need to bottle this dysfunctional gene and replace our own sweetness-receptors with cat-sweetness-ignorers! As I eat what must be my 15th two-bite brownie of the morning, I am thinking of how great it would be if I just didn’t want those brownies, because I couldn’t even taste them. If they were no different to me than cardboard, or a square of carpet.
Right now Linus is lounging here beside me in a box that something from IKEA came in. As an experiment, I am now going to become his blood-sister and then try another brownie. I’ll keep you posted.
