concept of "weekends" ... which means I'll get woken up at 0830 on a
saturday/sunday morning: "Why are you still asleep, don't you have to get

Cats. Sometimes they can be so annoying but one can't live without the
little furry cute bastards ;-)
Kind regards,

However, I don't have a problem generating static, I have a problem
keeping it down. I don't need a piece of cat skin to add to the problem.
I do need the cats because they are useful in many other ways (vermin
control, bed warming, an alarm clock (although I wish I could work out
how to set it....) etc. > 'It is probably a good idea to avoid

A cat skin will work just as well as a cat--and doesn't eat as much.
