Twizzle, our cat, loves nothing more than getting most-lovely attention at the dinner table. His tail is a problem though. As he visits the lap of each diner, it thrashes around leaving hairs in a Zorro-like gash in the butter.
I propose a remote control unit that overrides pussy-control of the tail
(yes; he agreed to the surgery; I have his pawprint). Press "Red" to render it floppy. No danger of dander now...
Of course, after five minutes, there will be a timeout in case drunken diners forget to re-enable the tail.

I'm thinking it's not just the tail that sheds. |
|

It's a case of prioritization. The tail's the worst. The coat is priority two. |
|
| |
And anyway, imagine if we rendered the whole cat limp at the press of a button. It would fall down on the floor and I would get beaten up. |
|
| |
Nah, you'd be fine - just press your *other* red button to make their arms go floppy. |

Ian, you evil genius. *applauds* |

Is not a simpler solution to just coat the offending tail with
silicone sealant? Maintains flexibility whilst preventing
shedding. |
