10/17: Robot Cat

The Japanese company that developed this has gotten more play and more press in the last few days. Why not add to it?

This robotic cat is supposed to compete with Sony's AIBO, and they cost into the thousands of dollars.

Well, I saw some video of this thing last night, and it is truly horrible. I mean truly. Its movements were grossly unnatural and bizarre.

I only posted this because the last week or so has been pet central here, and here's another in a continuing series, why not? But I'd rather have the 25-toed variety, or the hairless variety, than this beast from hell.
