Radio active?
YES!
But can he play CD's?

PORTLAND, Ohio - An 'atomic kitten' sounds like a character from a new video game, but for people in Portland it was way too real. Radioactive cat urine, that was later traced to a pet cat that was treated for a thyroid tumor with the radio-active substance iodine-131, sparked a safety scare at a nuclear power station. The affected cat litter was among 20 tons of household rubbish found to have dangerous radiation levels. The rubbish was sent to Indian Point nuclear power station in New York state for special handling after setting off alarms. This incident probably could have been diverted had the pet's owners used the special radiation-proof cat litter that can be flushed away.:eek: :eek:
