[net.misc] Bill the Cat

dxa@bentley.UUCP (DR Anolick) (07/12/85)

I'm a reader of Bloom County, and need some help.

The last I remember, Bill the Cat had passed on.
Of course, I went over a year without reading the
strip, so I am sure that I simply missed his 
resurrection.

Could somebody please MAIL to me how he can be
alive?  Please don't post this, I'll summarize
to the net.  (Really I will)

Does anyone out there in net land know where I can
buy a 'Bill the Cat' doll.  I've never been able
to find one.  Please help if you can.

		Thanks,

The best thing to do is make your own Bill the Cat doll.  Take some of your
mother's old stockings, a ratty old throw pillow, a couple of styrofoam balls
(3" diameter), 6 pieces of pipe cleaner, and a black felt-tip marker, stick 
them all in a clothes dryer, and you'll end up with at fairly good replica of 
Bill.  Test it out by standing it up in front of a real cat.  If it piddles 
on it, then you have succeeded.

        |Oo/      It should look like this.
