That may very well be - hands down - the absolute coolest piece of cold war trivia that ever surfaced. Who would even think about surgically altering cats into listening devices?
Then, the first prototype gets run over? You couldn't make that stuff up!
Thanks, Norton. That was exceptionally interesting.
