As I was checking my mail recently, I noticed a package on my porch. I was a little puzzled since I didn’t have any pending orders and when I picked it up I saw it had my address – but was addressed to my cat.<\/p>\n
Curious, I took it inside and opened it up. It was a brush in the shape of a giant tongue with knobs on one end. The other end was a flat piece of rubber.<\/p>\n
When I read the instructions I saw that the human in question was supposed to grip the flat piece in their mouth and then use the brush to lick their cat.<\/p>\n
After all, cats like to lick humans as a sign of affection so it stands to reason that they would like it back.<\/p>\n
The note in the package didn’t identify who it was from and I was really puzzled. Not “who would send me something like this?” but rather “Of all the mischievous and odd people I know, which of them would have sent this?”<\/p>\n
It’s a surprisingly big list.<\/p>\n
And, naturally, because I’m… well… me, I had to try it out.<\/p>\n
The next time Jim was over, I asked him to get a video of the first attempt. If you haven’t seen it already, here you go:<\/p>\n

Yeah, wow.<\/p>\n
I did a little detective work and tracked it back to my former co-worker – and then his wife confessed it “might” have been her idea.<\/p>\n
Really, though, it could have been any of a number of people and I wouldn’t have been surprised. I have some strange and fun and awesome friends.<\/p>\n
The jury is still out on if my cat liked it, but he was licking me back and I guess that counts for something.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
