US Patent and Trademark Office is one of the greatest repositories of practical knowledge in history. But along with a great deal of very serious and edifying material, much legally advised and/or required verbiage, and inventor-inspired general-purpose pleonasms, there are some items in their records that are highly amusing. In this series, occasional examples of such patents and patent applications are going to be extracted and put up for their amusement value.
Dogs are not the only subjects on inventors' minds. Cats also get their share of inventive genius directed at their needs and wants.
