I want in on the fish banquet action

This is the kind of news article that should brighten the days of any kitties with plans to raise cat armies to take over the world.

Cat army annihilates destructive rats
China Daily

2006-04-12

A group of villagers recently prepared a sumptuous fish banquet for more than 200 cats to thank them for eradicating rats from their farmland.

Yangmei villagers in Sanjiang Township of Xinhui District in the city of Jiangmen, Guangdong Province, are expecting a good harvest this year thanks to the hard-working cats.

The village committee spent more than 12,000 yuan (US$1,500) to buy more than 200 cats, which they released onto farmland to help wipe out the rat problem.

Sanjiang Village has 86.67 hectares of rice fields and 13.33 hectares of other crops and suffered from a rat infestation after most of the snakes were caught and slaughtered by local villagers in previous years.

I don't know. First snakes, then rats... what will they do wif the cats next? They bought all those cats an fed them fish (yum) but will they get homes? Beans don't always fink ahead.

We agree with Victor. It's a good thought intially, but what will 200 cats do after the rats are gone? Will anyone take care of them?
