It's not nice, or tasteful, but the silliness will make you smile, and wince. This rather pretty white plastic cat has a pencil sharpener concealed inside. Guess where you put the pencil, yes that's right.

Insert a pencil into the cat's bottom and sharpen away. To add insult to injury the cat will meow plaintively while you sharpen away. A pencil sharpener seems a little out of place in this digital age, but for sheer entertainment, you'll want it on your desk anyway, even if you have to get yourself a pencil specially.

The Sharp-End comes complete with its own litter tray to catch the shavings as they drop out of the bottom of the cat.
