“Basically, Earth’s orbit has three cyclic changes, orbital precession, precession of the equinoxes, and one I forgot.”

Too many cats piling up on one side of the planet in extra-fecund cycles causing it to list to one side.

Now that’s just wrong, even if you don’t like cats.

Yeah, sure. I saw a feature in the news today talking about how Iceland is experiencing warmer temps which means better and longer fishing, more grazing and growing time and that all around the Icelanders cant find a negative in the whole situation. What they seemed to be describing was the the weather cycle that the records say was present in Iceland in the 10th century when the first Norsemen settled there. At that time it was a good place to live, fish and farm and things only turned sour a hundred or so years later when the weather patterns shifted. Global warming my ass.

Normaly, cats north of the equator chase their tails clockwise, and cats south of the equator counter-clockwise.

The Antarctic ozone hole has caused southern cats to chase their tails clockwise, and the torque imbalance has tipped the Earth’s pole toward the sun so we are warming up.

They have it wrong. The exploding cat population is the CAUSE of global warming. It is all that constant fur licking...

Sure, and men get fat guts and women get fat hips because men wear belts which is where the fat settles and women don’t wear belts so the fat can drop further.

"Droves of cats and kittens are swarming into animal shelters nationwide, and global warming is to blame, according to one pet adoption group."

Yeah, I usually go to pet adoption agencies for the latest news in global warming. I guess the "reporter" that wrote this story does too.

"Several shelters operated by a national adoption organization called Pets Across America reported a 30 percent increase in intakes of cats and kittens from 2005 to 2006"

If the average annual temperature increase is .01 degree Celcius per year (1 degree rise in the next 100 years) and it caused a 30% increase in one year, they'll be taking in 300 times as many cats in the next century!

Liberals are incredibly stupid.

The next thing you know, swarms of bees will be driving.

“Basically, there is no longer a reproduction lull with cat breeding cycles, and unfortunately, it seems more people are bringing boxes of kittens into our agencies during winter now,” she added.

There is an increasing trend of keeping cats indoors. Humane agencies themselves are behind this trend, which has an immediate benefit to individual cats. However many cat-owned people still don't bother to spay or neuter.

Please. Cats go into heat twice a year. It has nothing to do with global warming.
