This project borrows heavily from the API frameworks built by jcberquist, such as xero-cfml and aws-cfml. Because it draws on those projects, it is also licensed under the terms of the MIT license.
There is only one type of demo: the cat picture demo. So, here you go "Cats As A Service":
catapi = new path.to.cfcat.catapi( apiKey = 'xxx' );
randomCat = catapi.getRandom().data;
writeOutput( '<img src="#randomCat.url#">' );
Search and iterate through all public images. For the data
arguments, see the documentation for available parameters.

argument can be a single id, a comma separated list, or an array of category ids.
