It is also possible to use a cat as an emergency alternator/generator. It is a
well known fact that a cat will always land feet-down. It is also true that a
piece of buttered bread will land butter side down. Simply strap a piece of
buttered bread to the cat's back, put a couple of magnets on the sides of the
straps, and drop the cat into the center of a coil of wire.

Viola, spinning cat-bread generates a voltage.
