Flush Puppy

 Because pets miss out when you go to the loo, too.

Okay, this is my little sister's idea and is remarkably similar to Pet'n'Surf. Basically the handle of the toilet flush is constructed from part of your pet (for example, the flush is built into the tail of your dog) so that when you flush the loo you can pet your pooch at the same time, giving it the attention it deserves in this wasted time.

My little sister is called Stephanie, she is 13 years old and already of a sick mental disposition.

       I don't like this because it appears to require my pet to be built into the bathroom fixtures.

       Somewhat obvious problem: if petting your pooch causes 1.6 gallons of water to plummet into your toilet (one of the thing that impresses me most about US toilets compared to British is that they say how big their flush is) then that's gonna make you less likely to pet your pooch.   

       Would it work if you were down the park, or would you have to slot your dog into a special docking station atop the cistern? I think your sister, MWS, has some hard thinking to do. (although my sister's rabbits used to like hiding behind the toilet, so maybe with the right animal this wouldn't be a problem.)   

       What's stopping us having a toilet that flushes automatically anyway? Too obvious?

       I'd like a dog which uses the loo

       This is funny (laughs.)

       And...today's look back in time is brought to you courtesy of the " random " button. Over there on the left, just a little ways down from the top. Thanks folks, and keep those cards and letters coming in.

       Posted in 2001. Stephanie is now 26 … can we have her contact details please ?   

       Please ?

       Seconded. Web search begun.

       Aww c'mon, give the kid a bun. This probably scarred her for life all those years ago.   

       Wait a sec, are you supposed to cut the dog's tail off and make it into a toilet flush handle?   

       Hmm. Maybe she was already scarred, but bun for originality.
