According to a study published in Current Biology* and posted on Yahoo, a study found that cats control humans and "exercise this control with a certain type of urgent-sounding, high-pitched meow," which is actually a purr mixed with a high-pitched cry. The researcher in the story "suggests that the purr-cry may subtly take advantage of humans' sensitivity to cries they associate with nurturing offspring."
There’s much more in the Yahoo article, but I don’t think you can accurately say that Ziggy controls us, right?


Yeah, we're just living in Ziggy's world.
* This will be the first and only time I reference Current Biology unless they feature an article about Troy Polamalu.
