This is a fantastic example of simpler image processing techniques... not everything needs a neural net!

also of simple environmental constraints to make the image processing 100x easier!

I was so engrossed in the reading, that when there was no _more_ button, I was confused for a moment.

What an interesting solution to an ongoing problem.

I too had a murderous feline companion. I did not have a system, such as Flo Control. My murdermittens brought me a rabbit head one morning. He deposited the head in the middle of a hallway. As I exited the shower, I was greeted with a not-so-fun rabbit head in the middle of my floor; before work.

Goober-control would have been wonderbar, and saved my sanity multiple times from the gruesome details of Goober's hunts.

I had a barn cat, Merlin, who would display mice for me. He had a little room up a ramp in the back of my 'barn'. Not satisfied with showing me the whole mouse, he took to presenting anatomical displays of the organs. And once, showed off his chef skills by presenting the organs over a bed of grass.

Thankfully, we don't have a cat door into the house, so no surprises. I'd go out and visit him on a schedule, until he moved into the house on a part time basis. Then he'd come around and ask to be in, and then ask to be out as needed.

I remember this site from back in the day! Somehow the profile view of Flo's head/shadow was still taking up space in my cranium after all these years.
