Have you ever tried to paddle a cat?&nbsp;&nbsp; I find they become wet and soggy&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; and hard to steer.

I have heard that tigers have a relatively high cat hull-speed. But I don't know that I'd want to paddle one.

Luckily, there is no evidence that I have found so far on the CLC website that the nymph canoe is anything other than a mythical beast. I am fast running out of things to which fiberglass and epoxy can be logically applied. I am trying to kick the habit. And my sister is determined to insert cats into my domecile -- which has been relatively cat-free for almost 8 years now. So I will need to contemplate the separation of cat and epoxy. It might be some trick. Curiousity...

If you fiberglassed and epoxied a cat... would that stop the shedding problem?

I'm not even going to contemplate the litterbox issue.
