&ot”The homeless cat problem in Santa Clara County [California] went global Tuesday: Apple Computer co-founder Steve Wozniak launched a video on YouTube.com about the estimated 125,000 stray and feral cats here and urged people to get involved,” Linda Goldston reports for The San Jose Mercury News. “His video introduces a film trailer about the ‘Cats Without a Home’ documentary, produced last year by Humane Society Silicon Valley.”
Humane Society of Silicon Valley – Cats Without a Home with Steve Wozniak:
Goldston continues, “The computer whiz urges viewers of the video to go to the www.hssv.org site to order the 30-minute documentary and learn how they can help homeless cats in their neighborhoods. Copies of the DVD film are $15 each.”

Don’t forget to have your pets spayed or neutered! Good bye everybody!
Has anyone seen Kathy Griffin lately?
The Woz just can’t handle all of the pussy, er, cats.
Woz had to prove that Leopard isn’t the only hot pussy out there.
Gas the fleabags.
The ever quirky Woz saved a few for himself. He had their teeth removed and then let them have their way with him after bathing in tuna juice. Watch for it on YouTube.
He’s also secretly training a talented handful of them to play Segway polo.
Champions, chomps on. Potato, po-taht-o.

“Gas the fleabags.”
As a cat lover and home to six cats myself I can honestly say you are a pathetic excuse for a human being.
Woz, you rock dude!!!
next to Bill Gates Woz has got to be the biggest Dweeb on the planet
Para-Racoon, “As a cat lover and home to six cats myself I can honestly say you are a pathetic excuse for a human being.”
I have a neighbor who has 12 cats. Her house stinks and she’s wondering why it won’t sell. Outside cats are fine, just don’t feed them. That’s why God made mice.
I hope little Max doesn’t get too comfortable – Woz is looking at that thing like a little cartoon chicken leg…
I hate cats – they’re shit.
Like San Francisco “compassionately” tried a few years back, these homeless cats should be given shopping carts to make it easier to move their kibble around town.
Ooh, you can so tell the cat haters on here. Cats are very clean animals by nature Ron, I think the issue is having so many in one place. If they don’t get on very well they will mark territory by spraying. If you have one or only a few that are neutered or spayed they have plenty of space and get the chance to establish territory and as a result they will not spray to mark. They use scent glands in their face which have absolutely no discernible odour unless you are a cat.
Our house doesn’t smell bad and we have six cats. Cats hate messy places too. They like to know where everything is in case they are attacked and need to make a quick escape.
Anyone who hates cats is just a dumb bigot. its like saying you hate dogs because one bad tempered dog bit you once.
Cat haters just like dog haters are just ignorant and stupid. A bit like a racist really. They hate things they don’t understand or have no real familiarity with. Dirty pierre, I aimed that one at you butt head!!!
You can tell a lot about someone from how they treat animals, not just dogs and cats.
It’s true.
I have nothing against cats in the home that people own. My problem lies with feral cats or domestic cats that are allowed outside. I grow plants in the yard designed to attract wildlife as food ot shelter, the wildlife in turn attracts cats. You love cats? Good for you, do something about it by keeping them indoors. Cuz I’m pretty damn talented with traps.
“Cat haters just like dog haters are just ignorant and stupid. A bit like a racist really. They hate things they don’t understand or have no real familiarity with. Dirty pierre, I aimed that one at you butt head!!!”
What if we have familiarity with cats, understand them, and still don’t like them? Or is this one of those cases where you insist that if we had ENOUGH familiarity with them and TRULY understood them that we would love them as much as you?
Don’t you worry, I (or rather my flowerbeds) am very familiar with the little fish eating shitheads.
El Gato beuno es el gato meurto.
There, I said it.
Uh, shouldn’t Woz be helping homeless humans first? Same with Gates, what the hell’s the Africa thing about? There are plenty of people in the US who need help. I am truly amazed by so-called smart people’s priorities.
The absolute WORST animal to let loose is the CHICKEN
Cats are not a bother usually, as long as you don’t feed them they will not hang around.
But chickens can live off of dam near anything, the roosters sit in your trees and crow at the street lights all night.
What’s worse is all the Crazy Chicken People who take a liking to them and feed them huge bags of grain daily.
Poison doesn’t work, because the Chicken People now have taken a liking to them and import new baby chicks and turn them loose. The Chicken People get in the government, vote laws to protect their chickens and take you to jail for erradicating them from your property.
The chickens scratch your cars, crap on dam near everything, tear up your flowerbeds and yards looking for bugs.
YOU want to declare WAR on your city or town? Get chickens.
Chickens are just about impossible to eradicate, sound devices doesn’t work, various smells and cocktails doesn’t work.
As long as there is water around, chickens will hang around, despite what you do to them. It really takes a lot of effort to reduce their numbers, then they seem to reappear as if overnight.
Chickens are easily bought in masse as peepers and turned loose near a water source and vegatation.
YOU WILL CREATE HELL!!
I just watched the video. Man, I thought I was putting on weight. Holy crap! Woz, push away from the dinner table, please. You’re going to crush poor Kathy.
At the end he looks like Dr. Evil, petting the kitty. Ah, the rich are not like us.
More seriously, his “campaign” is doomed to failure, as it addresses effects. If he really wanted to help, he should pledge financial support for free or low cost spay and neutering programs.
Cats are a growing problem, I believe cats should be subject to the same rules and restrictions as dogs.
