Ack! Stupid cat! Well, since my story is set in 1961 and teevees were mainly tubular, I think a fried snake wouldn't be too bad. I'm not sure how it would play out, though. What would fry it? Would it unseat something and get zapped?

Found the cat had jumped in just before I set the cover in place.
