    Really? Interesting! I'd like to see that- a swimming jaguar. How do the carberators handle the lack of oxygen?

    Snorkles of course.

    My first cat was a tuxedo cat. A very nice cat.

    I tried to ask my inner curmudgeon before posting, but he sprayed me with the garden hose…
    Yes, I have squirrels in my brain…

    Well, as I've mentioned before, I'm a dog man, but I like cats, too. And, they are very useful. Although, I pay them no mind and I don't feed them, a couple of neighbor cats hang around in my yard. They've been effective in keeping the field mice away from my house for which I am most grateful. Since I don't feed them and I don't attend to them, why do they hang at my crib? Could it be that I'm the only one in the hood who wears a kilt?

    My cat and I have been battling over my MacKinnon Modern Red Sash. She somehow is under the mistaken impression that I bought it for her.

    I am extremely fond of my Pita. She's been a joy to me.

    Time for a joke:

    How do you explain the difference between cats and dogs?

    A dog will look at you and think, "You feed me; you shelter me; you love me. You must be god."

    A cat will look at you and think, "You feed me; you shelter me; you love me. I must be god."

    Calico, Maine Coon, Tabby etc etc....

    I keep threatening that when one dies, he becomes a sporran. ooooooh the looks I get.
