Kind of a reverse Trojan horse brilliant!!!
Thanks for this!

I always feel bad for my cat in those last three seconds as I shove him into the crate, because it's clear that he's thinking, oh ****! I hate this box!

Penny is such a little stinker at home. (a lovable stinker, but a stinker!) Of course at the vet, she acted like Little Miss Perfect Pants, we had asked the vet to not leave the inner door open because she would try to escape, but of course she just laid there for him while he examined her and gave her 3 shots and she didn't even make one little peep, then he picked her up and snuggled her and she LET him! Maybe she just doesn't like us to pick her up and snuggle her.

Probably terrified, so she decided to make nice. But she's not scared of you!

In my Penny's case, it's short for Penelope a la Penelope Pitstop. I also call her Nelly, I'm not sure where I came up with that from.....

Thanks. Not that I can think of. I think I may simply have to be really sad until I am not.

Hope all are ok this Xmas eve. I like the slogan "Christmas. Bring it on".

My mom is visiting but has been flu like sick for days. I went and got her otc meds and am doing her laundry. Part of me dreading that this being sick is really her alcoholism. I hope she remembers that she agreed to see Kashi next week. Uh boy

Wow art miss p has gotten quite big, I remember when you first got her. I always think that is stupid phrase to say of children and pets because over time they naturally get bigger. Humans-continually stating the obvious, like we are the first to notice these things
