  THE CATBOT SERIES.
  
   B.I. Industries, in conjunction with Vandal Enterprises would like to
   congratulate you on your consideration of purchasing one of our fine
   Catbot Series. This sales brochure is intended to answer the most
   common questions you may have . Please contact us again if you have
   any further questions, or when you are ready to discuss your purchase!
   
   
   "...from the sculpted ears, to the tip of it's prehensile tail...
        simply beautiful!"    - Mr. A. Freemon, New Chicago, Mars.
   
   Each model of the Catbot series is beautifully crafted, and has a
   superior voice quality, with an underlying purr-like vocalization. But
   don't make the mistake of thinking that these are lowly petbots. They
   are far beyond that! With their state- of-the-art Biocomputer
   Neural-net computer brains, these models are almost on a level with
   human beings! With appropriate software or training, Catbots have been
   loyal assistants, faithful companions, light domestic help, cooks,
   even security guards or emergency medical aid!
   
   "Your Catbot - Model Two literally saved my childs life!" 
                 - Mrs. M. Rose, Nemo, Atlantis Colony.
   
   The Catbot series is of course, modeled on the basic form of a cat.
   Each has the common characteristics of a design of a feline-like head
   and body, and four legs. The tail on each, is an extendable whip-like
   prehensile appendage with a multitude of applications. In addition,
   each bot has two retractable "tentacle" arms located over the shoulder
   area of the front legs. These are used as needed for it's day to day
   tasks, and tuck neatly away when not in use.
   
   "...boy was he surprised when that ... (Catbot) took a chunk
        outta his leg!"             - Mr. H. Williams, Nashville, TN.
   
   Even our smallest household model of Catbot is capable of presenting a
   formitable obstacle to intruders. Each and every model of Catbot is
   equipped with our patented BlurBlade Technology in it's jaws. The Model
   Two adds the surprise of a concealed 7mm pistol (subject to local
   weapons restrictions, of course), and retractable claws on each of
   it's legs - also with BlurBlade technology! The Model Three is our
   heavy duty security oriented model. It comes equipped with a Carbine
   Laser that meets or excedes military specifications! (Customers please
   note, a 30 day waiting period is required for the purchase of a
   Catbot Model Three in most areas. Please check with local
   authorities or our sales staff for details in your area.)
