[PANAVIA]

A Story; Mac - my old Orange cat would come into the garage and curl up in a footwell or on top of the backseat and hang out with me whilst I was working on a car at home.

He also did this on conference calls and IT work -- Mac was better at Cisco configs and Linux than most of my customers admins.

He hung out with me for 12 years, and then sadly - he was the victim of kitty cat cancer.

I have a new recruit now - Parker, about a 1 year old orange cat. -- and he shows promise.

So cats can be your friends, -

So ---No more eradication on this thread. --OK

I dont talk about gassing your kids, shaving them , or pelting them with BB guns - or setting them on fire.

For some of us, our animals are that close to us.

I respect your pets ( children ) you can respect mine ( cats ) .
