Both of my cats have recently become very attracted to the Wall Street Journal. If I leave it on the bed, one of them will jump up there and roll around on it and rip it up.

I know this sounds like a joke, but I'm serious. To my cats, the WSJ has suddenly become catnip.

I'd be interested to know if anyone else has noticed this. I'm thinking that maybe they've changed to a vegetable-based ink that turns cats on.

Good marketing, if you ask me.

Very interesting. I just started subscribing to the WSJ for a class I'm taking, but the paper is always on the counter out of the reach of the cats. I'll have to leave a couple lying around and see what happens!

What class are you subscribing to the WSJ for? Maybe this could lead to a new career in animal psychology ;-)

Corporate Finance. It's about as far away from animal psychology as you can get.

My cats are asleep on the couch. I'm going to go experiment with the paper now. BRB.

No reaction at all...

other than them getting mad at me for disturbing their sleep.

I'm attending Florida Institute of Technology (FIT) going for my master's. This is my last semester and I'm taking Corporate Finance and Marketing. Only 6 weeks left!
