    I've often wondered how far you could go in modifying a dog. I think it would be funny to replace it's paws with wheels. I had in mind the very low friction wheels you find on boards and skates. As for power, with very small electrical motors available today they could be located in the wheel assemblies themselves, while the batteries could be stowed where a superflous organ (e.g. a kidney) had been removed. Lastly, I think it would be visually amusing to replace its tail with an aerial so you can control it remotely like a toy car. Then it would look a bit like a Dan Dare comic "Dog of the Future". Imagine the fun you could have with it in the park, making it zoom up to people barking like crazy.

    And to keep this thread in the realms of hifi, we'll tie an i-pod round its neck it with some powered speakers on its back.

    I'd like to modify cats.

    I'd like them to wear a belt that provides a 60v shock when they crap in anyones garden apart from their owners...

    chris - who is sick of standing in cat crap in his garden.

    Bottleneck, let me explain to you. When a Cat shits in your garden it has CHOSEN and you must accept. I hope you would not attempt to hurt one of our superiors in the manner you described. Just remember, after the nuclear war you will be at their mercy and they do have long memories. It is written : " After the nuclear war the Cats will know what to do. Man will serve Cat and you will all sleep in a basket. " Marmaduke 2:11. In preparation for the new order I demonstrate respect by sleeping in a basket now and washing my face as they do.

    yeah me too, and can we have more than 60v, especially when they alight on the bonnet of yer nicely polished car, and a radio link to the owners colar, that gives them double the voltage for twice the time if they shit/alight on some property in your garden,(Paul who is sick of cat owners who can't/won't control their pets, if the animal does what it wants, you are not clever enough to own one)

    I'm unlucky enough to have a rocket launcher drive and a pointy car so don't get them sat on my car as they cant get on, but they were a real pain at the last place and scratched my bonet often :mad: now I just get them spraying the garden and I cant leave my doors open for fear of them coming in here and doing the same.
    Elvis, my old dog (not to mention my wheely bin) had a cure for it though - shame I was allergic and had to take him back :(

    I'd love to see what cat owners would do if I set my two dogs loose to crap in their gardens. It does my head in, not to mention the assorted dead creatures I've had to clear up, they scattered a bloody birds nest and assorted bits all over the front yesterday. Nice..........

    Sorry penance, I'm not being stupid, cat owners who open the door and let their cats go are irresponsible and anti social, wait till your child comes in covered in cat shit, whilst they are playing in their own garden, see how "understanding" you are then, the selfish attitude of cat owners is what is stupid, as for dogs shitting in parks, thats the owners fault, they should pick it up, as should cat owners!!! it's disgusting, get the animal a litter tray and teach it to go there.

    Lordsummit your dogs are ace! Its not nice when cats leave bits of animal lying around but TBH it wasn't nice scraping bits of cat up after my dog's call of nature.

    The thing that amuses me with cat owners is they whitter on about how clean they and so many peple keep the litter tray in the KITCHEN WTF. My friend was banging on about it when his cat came into the kitchen shit in a box and jumped on a worksurface!! I don't eat at theirs!!
