There was a roar like the scream of a camel who has just seen two bricks.

“We took pity on him because he’d lost both parents at an early age. I think that, on reflection, we should have wondered a bit more about that.”

In fact, the mere act of opening the box will determine the state of the cat, although in this case there were three determinate states the cat could be in: these being Alive, Dead, and Bloody Furious.

Pratchett is always good for this stuff.

> As a merchant in the caravan business, Ahmed was well aware that a neutered camel can go longer and further without water than one which has not been neutered. But although he knew he was losing money, he couldn’t bear the thought of inflicting such pain on his lead camel, which was really more of a pet than a beast of burden.
> 
> Walking through a bazaar one day he found the solution to his dilemma: a sign which read “CAMELS GELDED WITHOUT PAIN.” Making inquired of the stall’s proprietor, he was assured that the operation was quick and absolutely painless. There would be no suffering. A price was negotiated and the merchant returned the next day with his favorite camel in tow. The camel gelder picked up two bricks,  
> approached the camel from the rear, took aim, and smashed the bricks together with a sound like a thunderclap. With a bellow of agony, the camel collapsed to its knees.
> 
> The merchant was horrified. “You promised it would be painless!” he cried, cradling his camel’s head.
> 
> “Why it is,” explained the gelder, “as long as you don’t get your thumbs caught between the bricks.”

Never, Marge. Never. I can’t live the button-down life like you. I want it all: the terrifying lows, the dizzying highs, the creamy middles. Sure, I might offend a few of the bluenoses with my cocky stride and musky odors - oh, I’ll never be the darling of the so-called “City Fathers” who cluck their tongues, stroke their beards, and talk about “What’s to be done with this Homer Simpson?”
