because I am kind

...I will never do this to you.


from Salon:

He may be pulling in $12 million a picture and deified by women worldwide,
but George Clooney is apparently not above digging around in cat shit for
the sake of a good joke. 

Actor Richard Kind (who plays Paul on "Spin City" and is a member of
Clooney's inner circle) and his pet feline learned that lesson the hard
way. 

"Richard had this cat that he loved and adored," Ben Weiss, a "Friends"
assistant director and another Clooney crony, recalls in the upcoming
issue of Men's Journal. "So George would go in the bathroom, and that's
where the litter box was. And there would be cat shit in there, so George
would clean it up and flush it down the toilet. Then Richard would go in
there and say, 'God, it's so weird. My cat hasn't taken a shit in
forever.'" 

This went on for days: the cat crapping, Clooney merrily scooping and
flushing. And eventually, Kind grew understandably concerned. 

"Richard went to the vet to get some kind of thing to make the cat go to
the bathroom," says Weiss. "The poor cat. The cat's shitting, and George
is still cleaning it up." 

Clearly, the madness had to end. So the erstwhile "ER" star capped it off
with a bang (or, more accurately, a thud). 

"Finally, George stood over the cat box and took a giant shit," Weiss
tells the magazine. "And finally Richard goes in there and says, 'Oh, my
God! Kitty!'"
