I saw this story and laughed.

I know it's not funny, but the idea of taking a cat and strapping something to its back shows how stupid people are/were.

Sometimes I scritch the Edster and get a little 'tude, so putting a rocket or an incendiary device on him and asking him to ford a moat and set something on fire?

Highly unlikely!!
