Before you try opening up the flame thrower why not pull your head out your ass first. I don't remember ever saying using the cat as the connection greenman nor killing the cat satanico. While you have that battery handy hook up some 10ga to both the positive and the negative and make an arc with it. If your going to sit there and tell me that arc isn't going to make a cat jump if it's foot just happens to be close to it then go ahead and flame on. I have welded with a 12V batter before. Plenty of power to make a cat jump. Don't remember saying running the current through the cat though. That's kinda ****ing dumb.
