I am thinking the breed of cat is a Russian Blue. Very talkative, green eyes or yellow eyes, quite proud looking. Their fur does have a bluish tinge to it and I believe they are a large framed cat.

Hello

Watched this episode tonight. It was the Mutt’s Knutts! Can anyone tell me what breed of cat “Debbie” is? It’s a really gorgeous cat, quite Siamese-ee but I suspect it’s another native pure breed from an eastern region.

Ta, Abi

Oh, now I get it - wondered why you qualified “jump the shark” in your original post. I confess: I missed the first 5 or 10 minutes. USA Network is re-broadcasting “Here Kitty” on March 27 at 11 pm, so I can try to catch the entire episode then. Thanks, Kim!

The “jump the shark” comment was a reference to the beginning of the episode, where House is racing his toy cars down a ramp, at the end of which they would jump a shark. Apparently, a lot of people didn’t notice that, including me; Jerry had to point it out.

No comments so far - was I the only one (besides Kim) who watched House last night?

I dunno - I didn’t think it was a jump-the-shark episode. House has to have some pretty far-fetched story lines just to have all those medical mysteries to puzzle over. And the writers did base the plot on Oscar (that’s a great photo of him, BTW - what a face!)

I also wondered what the fate of the cat would be. At the end, the cat jumped up by unhappy Dr. Taub, and I got the impression that maybe the cat would be going home with him.

At least it was a cat on TV for a change! (re: the subject of a blog post from last week).

P.S. You’re right, Kim, about the litterbox - it definitely needed attention!
