Screenshot_15This little black cat's name (on the left) is Snoopy.  I just read about her in an article on TVPredictions.com.  Apparently Snoopy can't stop watching HDTV, especially those PBS documentaries about birds.  In fact, Snoopy will stare mindlessly at her owner's TV for 20 minutes at a time - reaching out for birds, fish, and even baseballs.  What's even more interesting, the writer mentions that he's found other pet owners are documenting the same HD love from their furry companions.

"My cat attacked the TV when (the high-def network) HDNet was playing a show about lions," said one high-def owner at alt.tv.tech.hdtv.

I smell a new HDTV ad brewing.  Post your pets lapping up the boob-tube on YouTube now.  OK, it's already starting...

Other pet-friendly sites...
ILovedMyPet.com - pet memorials (I'm doing a story about this today, hence the cat Googling)
Dogster - MySpace for dogs
Catster - MySpace for cats

I am sure there are hundreds more pet sites and tales that will shock me...

P.S.  I was lying awake in bed last night trying to remember the definition for someone addicted to new technology.  It's a word that we talked about on my video podcast last summer...I think Mikey brought it up...if you know what I'm talking about, leave me a comment...if you think it's crazy I'm lying in bed thinking about something so random, you can keep those comments to yourself ;-).
