It's widely believed that the only reasons cats have not completely taken over the world is because of the number of times they bang their heads as kittens.
awww, but kittens in crash helmets would be so cute!!! besides, isnt it time for them to take their rightful place as rulers of the world? who are we to interrupt the proper flow of evolution? all they lack now is opposable thumbs.... :-D

There is that ... though this (http://www.photocat.co.uk/galleries/funny2/images/3.jpg) is probably overkill on both the safety and cuteness fronts. (Link ever-so-helpfully supplied by Fred.)
"all they lack now is opposable thumbs"
Some of the polydactyl mutants have opposable digits. I'm not sure what percentage, but I did know a kitten with thumbs (whob\m I once caught standing on a sheet of paper, holding a pencil, and urgently erasing). Unfortunately (or maybe luckily for us humans) he died of feline leukemia before reaching adulthood. *sigh*

Fred emailed me to point out that the link in my previous comment won't work -- apparently that server does some special referrer-checking:
