Fantastic news! MIT is now accepting cats into their undergraduate dorms. This is great for many cat-owners like myself (I have twelve cats) who would like to send their cats to  a good school.

LizzyKitty (named after me by my sister, who noticed that we share a tendency of bumping our heads into things) is thrilled. I've talked it over with her and she says she's narrowed down her choices to either Brain and Cognitive Sciences or Biological Engineering. Personally, I think the latter is a better fit for her, but I firmly believe she could be outstanding in either course. I know it's no walk in the park to get into MIT - but I think she's just about nuts enough to make it. Maggie the Cat (yes, that's a Cat on a Hot Tin Roof reference), our resident mommy kitty, is also very pleased with this development because from now on her kittens will have a better chance at a good education.

Hopefully, this will only be the beginning, and we'll soon see more schools open their doors to capable felines. My cat Ranulph (named after  British adventurer and endurance record holder Ranulph Fiennes) still wants to get into the London School of Economics (possibly for a BSc in Geography with Economics).
