i misread that as "cat" at first, which was a humorous mental image.

I think it works on cat too. Please try it and report back.

Hmm. I went to try it on the cat, but for some reason she's nowhere to be found.

He's spring-time fresh and static free. ; )

We should try this on the Saturday Night Live cast. Except for a few of them, they are starting to stink up a bit.

I totally read that as "cat" too. My aunt actually used to do this, not to keep her kitty from stinking, but to reduce static electricity. No lie.

Rub a sheet of Bounce on your head if you have static-y hair, too.

Works.
