When Mommy's Gone
Whenever my roommate leaves for the day, her two cats start going crazy. One of them, Circe, runs through the house yowling, looking for her mommy, at the same time carrying around one of her "babies." Her baby being a little mouse toy filled with catnip.

I feel terrible when she yowls like this, and I wish there was something I could do for her, lol. She really sounds like she is being tortured.

Usually, this behavior ends when she jumps on the kitchen counter, the top of the fridge, and then to the very top of the kitchen cabinet, where she curls up into a ball, with the "baby" more often than not, and sleeps all day.

What do your cats do when you or another of the "pride" leaves?

KittyT yowls through the house like a maniac; Then he goes to his 'safe place' ... to get to it, he has to literally crawl through a maze behind sofas & tables. He curls up and goes to sleep with one eye on the front door & waits for my arrival.

You are using that icon without my permission.

As that icon is my identity on many communities including this one, that is a kind of identity theft.

actually, if you notice, i took the liberty of adding 3 pixels in the lower right. thusly, it is now fair use and protected under the DMCA (digital milennium copyright act) so wisely passed by our fascist overlords. now kinds keep this post on topic, we were talking about kitties!

I like griefing as much as everyone else, but making a derivative work based on a copyrighted work is not defensible, even with the DMCA.

Even non-substantial use has actionable basis:

Making a derivative work that is not substantially different from the original is not fair use.

I also want to be clear here too, while the letter of the law says it is not defensible fair use, the options for the OP are limited pretty much to "QQ more nub".

Besides, I'm not sure the OP can actually _prove_ she owns the copyright to the item in question. So making threats and whatnot would be considered to be an abuse of the legal system.

Take it as lesson learned, and move on.

Lesson: The more you complain loudly, the worse it gets. Recent proof: wikileaks and Swiss Bank Julius Baer. The bank really got it good.

She can't prove her copyright to it because it is stolen off of a webcomic that neither her nor the friend that made it drew in the first place.
