A couple of years ago a similar thing happened to me.
I got a voicemail message on the phone from an old girlfriend: "I just heard about your passing. I just rang to hear you voice one last time."
Obviously she was very upset.
So I called her back, poor bugger was in total shock when I spoke (I have a very distinctive voice) I then had to track the misinformation back to it's source, turned out it was a case of mistaken identity.
I'm curious as the what the dog will make of the robo cat.........years ago my sister gave my mum a joke gift of a toy parrot on a perch that would flap it's wings and repeat back to you whatever you said to it, my dog hated it with a passion...... he would snarl and growl at it, and it would snarl and growl back, then he'd bark at it and of course it would bark back, this would escalate into a full on row between the two, with the dog snarling, growling, barking and jumping up to try and kill the parrot, and the robo parrot snarling, growling, barking and flapping it's wings in response
