Wouldn't it be cool to be able to just "adopt" a tank of gas from the SPCA or something?
[Devil's Advocate POV]:Hrmm.. we could take it further. Instead of burial sites or standard cremation, bodies could be used for biomass reactors to provide electricity to cities. That means more land could be reclaimed for forests (and cleaner air) and bodies wouldn't just be rotting in the ground but rather returned in a compostable format (ash is often used to help create rich compost material).

Its been a long while since we've gotten a pet from there... but don't you still have to pay fees to "adopt" an animal?
Quitmzilla is a firefox extension that gives you stats on how long you have quit smoking, how much money you\'ve saved, how much you haven\'t smoked and recent milestones. Very helpful for people who quit smoking and used to smoke at their computers... Helps out with the urges.

If it's anything like here in Toronto, the fees are for microchipping, initial vaccinations and spaying. Sometimes they have "sales" when they have too many of a specific animal type (Toronto recently had a $25 cat sale).

Yes, but this could revolutionize the whole process . . . They charge to adopt to make money to take care of and put down all the other cats. I imagine a self-powered cat (exhaust) gas chamber. Get an old clunker, remove the catalytic converter, pull one of the plug wires to make sure she smokes real good, connect by hose to a large box of cats. Cats power the car, excess are sold off as cheap fuel. Free adoption, no more waste of excess cats . . .
/me looks up patent office . . .

I agree with MsM,,,, it would be really great to take advnatage of the dead cats, but the point is, if they approved that this is really possible and applicable, I think human being will start to kill cats for this purpose, this what should arise attention and anxiouness.

im sure its not as simple as grinding a cat up and sticking it in the tank. There is surely a complicated process to making cats into fuel. Besides the way we burn fuel, we'll run out of cats first. Unless we start breeding them.... **shudders**

There goes Bob Barker's "have your pet spayed or neutered" campaign!

I've been on holiday to Florida. I saw some huge mounds of fuel waddling around the parks.
These guys can't be much longer for this earth and a couple of them would keep a power station smoking for a week.
Saves on cats too.
