You know what they say about cat people who use overcomplicated ways to groom their pussies.

I certainly don't.

All of you thinking about making a Sarah Connor joke: please, don't.

I've seen this episode: Geordi's mom isn't really on the ship and she is actually a lifeform native to the planet the ship has crashed on.

Although, yeah the idea of using this to brush a cat is fairly rediculas, the possibilities are impressive. I've always thought that a time would come where we could perform factory work, even warehouse work like this. Yes, most factory work is done with robotics, at least where assembly is performed, I'm sure there is room for some form of intigration.

Best trained cat ever. My cat would have bolted or attacked the robot as soon as it stood up. Leaving me with claw marks all over my arms and legs trying to get away or go after the robot.

Make it water-proof so it can wash the cat. It would be worth billions.

That robot is $16,000.
I wish I had a robot friend.

For $16k you'd think they could manage better than 5 fps.

I don't need a robot to groom the dam cats. I need weights and pulleys to hold the damn things down.
