The CIA Once Trained a Cat to Be a Spy

The CIA's Operation Acoustic Kitty was an attempt to train a cat as a spy during the Cold War. Despite spending millions, the project failed due to the cat's unpredictable nature and the impracticality of the technology. The cat was surgically modified with devices, but the experiment ended unsuccessfully. Different accounts suggest the cat either died or was retired. The military continues to explore nature-inspired technologies, like insect cyborgs, for espionage.
