Inventor turns dead cats into diesel

A German inventor says he's found a way to make cheap diesel fuel out of dead cats.

Dr Christian Koch, 55, from Kleinhartmannsdorf, said his method uses old tyres, weeds and animal cadavers.

They are heated up to 300 Celsius to filter out hydrocarbon which is then turned into diesel by a catalytic converter.

He said the resulting "high quality bio-diesel" costs just 15 pence per litre.

Koch said the cadaver of a fully grown cat can produce 2.5 litres of fuel - meaning around 20 cats are needed for a full tank.

He said: "I tank my car with my own diesel mixture and have driven it for 105,000 miles without any problems."

Annelise Krauss of the Dresden Animal Protection Association blasted Koch's new diesel though, saying: "This is as bad as experimenting on animals."

Fixed it, ya stupid bitch.

Edit: Forgot to mention--does anyone think this may be a spoof? Why only cats? It seems any old carcass should do.

Could be a spoof, I just thought the article was humorous given the amount of attention that cats seem to draw here at ARFCOM.

It says it works on animal cadavers, they only use cats as an example.

That's exactly why I figured it was a spoof--killing cats is always a fun topic, and not just on this site. Many countries have full cemeteries. I'm thinking soylent green may be FAR into the future, but this . . .
