One of our cats would ride on the Roomba until the thing ran over its tail. Now she leaves the room at Roomba time.

It is hilarious to watch them ride, and try to catch the little brush that pops out of the bottom every so often.

Check out this. Then this. Now, if you could just reverse the sequence in the same cat, it would be milestone in feline evolution.
