For 5 Million Dollars would you....(please read details)?

Question

(a question about greed vs sacrifice)

If a mad scientist offered you 5 million dollars to, though the wonders of technology, turn you into a cat for a year would you do it?

You get to pick what cat you get to be and who would look out for you.
You can describe the change if you want, it will probably help your answer get picked for the 10 points.

If you chose yes what would your life be like?

If you chose no how much money would it take? Or who would you want the mad scientist to turn into a cat for 1 million dollars (someone who you know personally no "turn bush into a cat then shoot him" responses please...no matter how awesome that would be)

So the most creative and detailed response will get the points, have fun and don't forget to vote for your favorite answer. Spammers will be turned into mice. Have fun

Lets assume that he can turn you back ok

Answer 1

The answer is quite clear for me. Lets start, well...... oddly enough before the beginning.

It was a hot sweltering post war evening. On a small patch of land considered less then an Island but obviously worthy enough for the once bustling dictatorship to commit tens of millions of dollars on a secret research facility miles below this patch of dirt. It was so remote and apparently had no military advantage that it was never invaded or even considered for a refueling stop for any country. However, unknown to the world above, an almost mad scientist and two not so trusted assistants had been secretly performing horrid experiments for years. Just recently a team of botanist led by Dr. Dubie were sponsored by a private organization to try and cross pollinate "weed" with common everyday vegetables. This had a two fold objective. First and foremost it was an effort by Brussels sprout growers to find a way to boost sales by giving the baby boomers a reason to eat or even smoke the dam awful things. Secondary to that effort was by making nearly all healthy and much needed vegetables "HAPPY FOOD" it would pressure the world to legalize Marijuana or outlaw carrots tomatoes and bell peppers. It was rumored that the scientists where placing a thin slice of tomato under their tongue and they would be trippin for days. This was better than any dam frequent fliers miles.
Anyway it is time to connect this with our secret island lab. In search of a place to grow and cross pollinate plants these botanist stumbled upon this seemingly unknown patch of "Non island" land. Private funding poured in as they dispersed test plants among the native shrubs and flowers. For years this went on and for years reports of genetically altered foods slowly leaked out from the FDA's main office.
One day I will not soon forget. The day the overlanders met the underlanders. The first meeting was an accident and probably not even remembered by the overlander that was obviously tripping because all he kept saying "Hey CAT, whatts up".
A week earlier I awoke in extreme pain. Pain worse then the twitches and aches I had been feeling the past month. For a little over a month now I had elected to speed up our research by testing the serum on myself. I just doubled the dosage a couple days ago and today was the worst. Beside the pain I had this uncontrollable urge to sleep most of the day. This morning I found another wad of god awful puke in the shower. This time it looked hairy and had what looked like the back end of a rat protruding from it. Oh man this ain't gonna be a good day, I thought to myself. I had this uncontrollable urge to scratch myself and then realized the hair on my arms was darker then I remember. Oh well I stretched for what seemed an eternity and then I figured what the hell. I was gonna finally shave today. The boss was complaining about my long hair and beard. I thought it was cool. After all these years I finally was able to grow a beard!! So I stretched again as I meandered my way over to the sink. Then it dawned on me! How in the hell did the sink get way up there? Oh no this cant be as I looked up. Dam, now I know why the ladies get mad when us guys don't put the seat down. Looking at things from a different angle can be scary. But wait a minute! What the heck was I saying! Where in the heck was I. Before I knew it bam, there I was standing on the edge of the sink admiring that handsome sleek looking *&^% WHAT?? A CAT. Then it became all to real. We did it. The not so mad scientist found a way to turn me into a cat.

That makes sense now. The Ovrlander saying "Whats up cat" really ment it. So long story short! Keep your money! Unless you can find a cure for a 40 year old cat who is sooo tired of rubbing ladies leggs and looking up.......

Ohhhhh Kaaaaaaaay! Forget that last part. Keep your money honey I am happy with my view on life.

WHAT A KRAZY KAT........

Answer 2

Heck yes, I would definitely agree to be turned into a cat for a year, especially for 5 million years!!
As for the type of cat, I would be a white and very fluffy cat. I would pick my friend who lives far away. He's really good with cats so I know he'd be good to me, and I would get to see him for a whole year!
I would miss my friends where I live, and I would miss a whole year of high school, which is a mixed blessing. Sure I would miss my family, but it would be worth it. I would love to see what it would be like to be a cat. to get to prowl around and watch humans.
I would get to hear secrets maybe and see what my friend does when he's bored.
But actually, a cat is probably the only animal I would ever say yes to be changed into. A cat is the pet with the most freedom and independence. And the experience would certainly be a story to tell my grandchildren when I get old!

Answer 3

Sure, why not? Provided that I got the money AFTER I turned back into a human of course! Being a cat would be an awsome life. All I would have to do was eat, sleep and play and get pampered ALL the time! How cool would that be?! I would want to be a persian cat because they look so majestic.

Answer 4

Obviously. That's not really a sacrifice. I'd be turned into a cat for free. Why not? If I remain in control of what kind of cat I'd be, the life I'd live, hell, that's better than the way things are now! How many of us get to chose our families? None, that's how many. And you give me the chance to, for a year, be a different animal AND I get to chose my family. I wouldn't say this scientist is mad, I'd say he's a genius.

Answer 5

I would do it for 5 million!
I would love to be a cat for a year! I would choose to be a Scottish Fold, a white one. I would have my room mate take care of me and I would live and play with the kitties we have now! Our cats are SUPER spoiled, so life would be great! No work, house cleaning. bills any worries what so ever! Our cats get the best of everything! Food,toys, treats and a clean litter box everyday! Life would be nothing but eating, sleeping,playing and getting into trouble! The only thing I would miss is playing video games!

Answer 6

hmmmmmm...Interesting Q.
Well, no. I`d do it 4 6 million $. =)
anyway. If they offered me that much, I`d want 2 be a Syamise cat, my cousin 2 look out 4 me, and I`d want..............Alicia 2 turn into a cat! MUAHAHAHA!!!! think of it. she`d be afraid 2 go 2 her litter box becuz she wouldnt stand the smell! LOL! I can see it now!!!!

Answer 7

Cats are intriguing creatures, and it would be interesting to be one, if I do say so myself. Granted the scientist turned me back into a human after a year, I'd be more than happy to do it.

Answer 8

of course i would! i would be a tiny orange tabby with white paws. my owner would be my best friend who already owns 4 cats and takes such good care of each one. shes had one for 9 years. but i would have to be able to eat people food and not get sick. oh! and one more thing.... the mad scientist would HAVE to succeed turning me into one, and turning me back. also, he has to pay me!

Answer 9

No. A cat doesn't need 5 mil. Its only so much salmon kitty cat eat every day.

Answer 10

You couldn't pay me enough money to be turned into any kind of animal. Perhaps if I could pick who my owners would be, then I might consider it. I wouldn't want to be a companion to someone who doesn't take really good care of me.
