Lee as he wanders into the real world the cat's owner rigged a collar mounted camera that automatically snaps a picture every few minutes and then he downloads these to his website the result pictures that tell a story of snakes cat friends and running back home the site also has instructions for making your own cat cam before you try this at home make sure you consider the safety of your feline friend you are now all cued up I'm rich tomorrow with Cena TV that might work for Sopranos but not here don't say I didn't tell you so
