Pinky and the brain

Is it ever a good idea to put a leash on a cat?

Yeah, PINKY!

So, right, Pinky is one pissed pussy. But of course! First -- duh! -- the damn name. "A Boy Named Sue," "A Cat Named 'Pinky.'" Let's face it, if you wanna piss somebody off in a deep way, give them a bad name. Lots of cats turn pink when you are excited or mad. Easier to see in white cats, but if a yellow-stipped cat like Pinky was pink, he must have been VERY angery.

Why angry? Well, don't forget thet the first thing that animal shelters do, and rightfully, is to, uh, "fix" the animals. A good thing, in th elong run, but still not something a cat really, REALLY wants: "I shall name him 'Pinky,' and then I shall from his little cat body remove his gonads." Meanwhile Pinky is thinking, "what in the holy hell is THIS nonsense?"

So, in the end, Pinky rocks! Heck, I'd adopt him. Why the hell not?
