Forget Oil -- Dead Cats Solve Energy Crisis!

  • 16 Comments
  • by: Colorado Pols

A German man may have found the solution to rising gasoline prices. From Rueters news service:


A German inventor has angered animal rights activists with his answer to fighting the soaring cost of fuel — dead cats. Christian Koch, 55, from the eastern county of Saxony, told Bild newspaper that his organic diesel fuel — a homemade blend of garbage, run-over cats and other ingredients — is a proven alternative to normal consumer diesel.

“I drive my normal diesel-powered car with this mixture,” Koch said. “I have gone 170,000 km (106,000 miles) without a problem.”

The Web site of Koch’s firm, “Alphakat GmbH”, says his patented “KDV 500” machine can produce what he calls the “bio-diesel” fuel at about 23 euro cents (30 cents) a liter, which is about one-fifth the price at petrol stations now. Koch said around 20 dead cats added into the mix could help produce enough fuel to fill up a 50-liter (11 gallon) tank.

This would also fit into the category of, “At least he’s not your neighbor.”

  2. Does he know that the brand “Meow Mix” is already in use in America?

    The big question is if he can run over cats fast enough to keep the blasted thing going.
