Prolly not gonna happen in this Century!
Here's the 'trick' to a reasonably accurate home scale weigh-in.

* Grab da Kat, Dawg, Hamster or what-have-you and hold him/her tightly
* Hop on the scale whilst HOLDING the FurKid
* Record your combined weights - YOU + the FurKid
* Release the FurKid ... Zooooooom
* Step back on the scale and record YOUR weight without the FurKid

Do the math ...

Take the Combined Hoomin + FurKid weight (the BIGGER number)
and SUBTRACT (-) the Hoomin alone weight (the smaller number)

The RESULT is the weight of the FurKid
