	It is QUITE true ! I personally know a kitty with a foreshortened
tail., who was very lucky that that was the only part the fan got before
the onwer of the car stopped it and ran out to check under the hood
(horrified). (Now my Honda, you couldn't fit a new kitten under the
hood, but..) Another thing that cats will do is lick anti-freeze (something
about cats and glycerin, they love it) and get poisoned. So do be careful
of your own and your neighbor's furpersons.
