Resistance is futile.

Or quite possible smuggling gerbils...

Nope, cats like watermelon more than they fear water.

Behold, the power of watermelons!

But do gerbils like watermelons?

Interesting suggestion... Still, I doubt anyone would enjoy doing that...

i think we should setup some empirical testing for this.
we need a government funded study to purchase lots of gerbils and check various forms of herding.

that would require a sheepdog and some other methods

perhaps a placebo would work on them too, we should do these tests double blind, so include vodka in the PO

You may hit problems with the RSPCA or anti-vivsection bodies if you start giving your gerbils vodka, unless it's the very best vodka.

revdkathy, the vodka was to ensure the test monitors themselves were double blind.
but i kinda like the idea of testing whether drunken gerbils still resist herding

The test monitors would only be double blind if they were drinking double vodkas. That's obvious!

Can a double-blind investigator intoxicate a gerbil by breathing on it? If so, is this a method for herding them?

I believe it's been found ineffective to intoxicate blind gerbils via human oral respiration.

One important, question which remains unanswered, is what part lake plays.

Lake is undetermined and we should consult a local limnologiest, hopefully with some extra background in both feline and agricultural distilling.
