Cat takes the bus
This has probably already been posted somewhere, but it is still awesome:

Bus drivers have nicknamed a white cat Macavity after it has started using the No 331 several mornings a week.

The feline, which has a purple collar, gets onto the busy Walsall to Wolverhampton bus at the same stop most mornings - he then jumps off at the next stop 400m down the road, near a fish and chip shop.

1. too much!
I had to forward this, Thanks for it.
I'd love to move somewhere where a cat's allowed to take a bus trip.

He's in business or something, this cat.

3. My cat would
take the bus if we had one here. She is a real jungle cruiser - all day long and I have no idea where she goes.

Thanks so much for posting this~!

5. Cats always know were they can be fed.
We have a homeless cat, a male, that makes the rounds on the block.

He knows where he will be fed.

This cat know to.

7. What a smart cat! This reminded me of a funny story
in my family. When my mom was in the hospital with her firstborn, 63 years ago, my dad took their Scottie dog to work with him in his office, which he did occasionally. He left her there with the secretary while he went to visit my mom and their new son.
The dog slipped out of the office when someone came in, went to the elevator, and got on with some people. In those days they had elevator operators, and he took the other "passengers" to the lobby and then went back up several floors and delivered the dog back to my dad's office.
I think she sensed something important was happening and didn't want to be left out!

and I STILL think my username is worse than yours. :hi:

I also think it's about time old Toonces lost his/her license and started taking the bus.
