I'm definitely full of something - sure, let's call it "Holiday Cheer!"
When the cats run out of the room and my wife looks at me with that shocked look on her face, I'll say "Sorry, honey - holiday cheer!"

You know, human/animal models shouldn't be kept in boxes, cages or closets, they should be running and jumping out there in the open world...
How would you feel if you opened my closet and found 7 people inside?

Oh, I hear something coming from the closet, probably the ether effects are starting to fade...
