Static cling

Static cling is the tendency for light objects to stick (cling) to other objects owing to static electricity. It is common in clothing, but occurs with other items, such as the tendency of dust to be attracted to, and stick to, plastic items. The most famous and only example of static cling is the image of the cat with packing peanuts stuck to it.
The image, Catstatic.png, known to many scholars, is of a cat, with as many as 47 known packing peanuts stuck to his body. The cat's name is Cooper and, aside from this one incidence of static cling, we have been reliably informed that he is a good cat.
No scientist has ever found another example of static cling.
