12-9-09 – Christmas shopping!

Finished your Christmas shopping yet? Are you STUMPED trying to come up with the perfect gift for one of those hard to buy for relatives or friends? Do you kinda wanna punch them in the nose when they shrug and say “Oh, just get me any ol’ thing!”?

LOOK NO FURTHER.

In these cold and gray days of winter, all anyone wants to do is bundle up in front of the fire and not move ’til Spring, am I right?

But unfortunately, there are things like “jobs” that are even more unfortunately not located near fires where you can bundle up and keep warm.

What is a cold person to do? What oh what?

I HAVE THE SOLUTION FOR YOU!


The ACME Portable FURnace is here to save the day! You just take this super-warm little ball of fluff, put it on your shoulder, and although it has a head that is stuffed with marshmallow fluff, it SENSES where the warmth is needed the most, and it will settle there!


NO difficult and messy settings, no annoying electric cords! You put the ACME Portable FURnace on, and forget it’s there!


You can place it on your shoulder for easy kissing access, or you can place it on the back of your neck for maximum warmth! A little rub between the FURnace’s shoulder blades turns on the vibrating massage function!


You’re taking phone calls! You’re filling out reports! You’re even attending meetings! AND NO ONE KNOWS IT’S THERE, KEEPING YOU WARM! If you weren’t so toasty and warm, you’d hardly know it was there yourself! It runs so smoothly it purrs!

SET IT AND FORGET IT!

The ACME Portable FURnace recharges itself AS YOU USE IT! Give it a bowl of food and some water, empty it occasionally in the nearest litter box, let it stretch its legs while YOU sleep, and it’s ready to go again the next morning!


OPERATORS ARE STANDING BY!

Call 1-800-FLUF-HED and place your order today! Act now, and for a short time only, you can get TWO FOR THE PRICE OF ONE! One can keep you warm while the other one is off whining about how hungry it is despite the fact that it JUST ATE!

Don’t delay! Order now for Christmas delivery!

Disclaimer: ACME Portable FURnaces are guaranteed to be as adorable as the one pictured above, but may not be as well-behaved; some FURnaces occasionally emit fountains of vomit down your back with no warning and for no particular reason; FURnaces are sometimes known to walk through their own feces and track it all over the place, leading one to sniff and say “Does it smell like butt in here to you?; FURnaces need to have their claws trimmed regularly or may shred your clothing in an attempt to keep their claws sharp; wearing loose clothing is unadvised, as the FURnace may take it as an invitation to go exploring and then pop its head out the front of your shirt to see what’s going on; FURnaces may regard hair as an attractive snack; FURnaces sometimes sneeze and get snot all over the nearest surface (which could be the back of your head); FURnaces will sometimes develop the habit of sitting an inch from your face in the middle of the night and howling “MAO? MAO? MAO?” until your brains leak out your ears; FURnaces are self-cleaning and may interrupt important meetings making smacking noises as they loudly clean their nether regions; though self-cleaning, FURnaces might need the occasional bath (see above regarding walking through their own feces) – use gentle shampoo and the warmest and fluffiest of towels when bathing the FURnace; do not shake the FURnace; do not let the FURnace get cold; speak kindly and gently to the FURnace; do not yell or scream at, shake, fold, spindle or mutilate the FURnace.

    This? Totally made me do the surreptitious chuckle-snort at work, making my co-worker ask me if I was choking. Now – where can I get a FURnace of my own?

    i love all the nonsense that shows up in disclaimers, and this one did not disappoint!

    goodness me, why can’t they stay that small and adorable forever? soon they’ll all be too fat to cuddle in your collar and have to retire as furnaces.

    ROFLMAO

    A FURnace also makes the best fur stole for the stylish out there. I mean who wants a dead animal hanging around their necks?

    Hilarious and adorable!

    Could I get a hefty little black and white one with a pink nose? And maybe a lanky gray one with extra floof?

    I passed this on to more than a few people! I’m going to put one of those FURnaces on my Christmas list for sure. ๐Ÿ™‚

    Oh my, I just had a major fit of giggles. You and your kitties are awesome. ๐Ÿ˜€

    Seriously don’t even joke because I am having a bad day and could totally use a kitten right now. And boy, do kittens give off a lot of heat – I am always amazed by it.

    It’s ok, no-one ever reads disclaimers…

    I’ll take a bucket of them please!

    Aww – that is just about the cleverest/cutest/funniest post regarding FURnaces i have seen in a long while. I don’t suppose you could post them to Australia – nooo. Better see to it if I can get them locally.

    These are fantastic! I’ll take all five Cookies, the four Wonkas, sweet little Terry…umm…let’s see that makes it 10…how about you throw in Jake and Elwood too for an even dozen ๐Ÿ˜‰

    Mwaaa…I want an ACME Portable FURnace too! I have one of the older models that is actually too big for my neck and he tends to be not as snuggly as the smaller model you are offering. I will take one in taupe, orange and white please! Love it love it love it!

    Ohhh my, I laughed so hard at this I have tears streaming down my face. My landlords do not allow the use of these FURnaces, so I will have to admire them from afar and visit my friends who have FURnaces. One of my friends has a large model, which has a very strong massage function. He has quite a humorous glitch, however- he is known to fall asleep with his head by your ear and then SNORE!!!
