List Nine.

A list of things that pet cats should not sit on:

1. Fire. Cats aren't cute when charred.
2. A bog filled with fleas and ticks. Self explanatory.
3. Their own catfood while you are trying to refill their food bowls.
4. Freshly painted objects... that you want to remain intact.
5. Laptops - who wants furdirt in their keyboard?
6. Clouds - just because a cat is fluffy doesn't mean it's fluffier than a cloud.
7. Magnets. Cats are actually robots and magnets will mess up their internal Cute-o-meter.
8. Any stuffed sharks. Unless you're a perv and you like cat on stuffed shark action.
9. The dashboard of your car while driving. They need to be steering, not decorating!
10. Your knife collection. If you have a cat that's not a robot, there is a chance that it's actually a furred-over balloon and you don't want to risk it popping.
