Rise of the Cat-Internet Industrial Complex

"No matter what the market's doing, a certain breed of entrepreneur tends to come out on top — or should we say, breeds? Domestic short hair, Persian, Siamese — if you have the right breed of cat, or at least one with a certain look, you may be feeding kitty treats to a potential gold mine.

Luckily, there's a road map to feline stardom — published Tuesday, it's called How to Make Your Cat an Internet Celebrity: A Guide to Financial Freedom."

He cost me a small fortune when I first adopted him, and the food he has to have isn't cheap. And I have to use mouse traps since he can't even take care of that.

Where's the damned camera? OK, now I found the camera. Stupid cat won't do anything cute, or dumb. WAKE UP, YOU STUPID CAT!
