I like this idea that my innate tendency to run on about things I like may have some practical application.
I like this, also.

Urban Dictionary (first result when I googled it*) suggests it's simply because the ice might support the weight of a cat, but nothing heavier. There's no citation, of course, but it seems a reasonable explanation.
*I tend to avoid Urban Dictionary because the probability of coming across a sophomoric/misogynistic description of some obscure and rather anerotic-sounding sexual act is high, but once in a while it comes in handy.
