Just pray that nobody is crazy enough to experiment with uploading
non-uplifted cats.
The _only_ reason cats are cute to us is that we're bigger than them
and we feed them.
I've got a feeling that an uploaded cat would make a _very_ good cruise
missile guidance system; just remap its sensory inputs so that targets
look small and furry. Laser guidance works right out the box!
