Huh. My cats never differentiated. They came snooping around
for any cheddar. Other kinds of cheese are hit or miss.

What a marvelous thing to do for your dog. I doubt I'll have
another one but if I do, it's something to keep in mind.
Something nice on a horrible day.

Hi Nancy,

I've loved and lost many a pet. In another group, I am handling a good
part of the Jellicle Ball for this year. Loosely related to the 'CATS'
play of fame, it's shifted a lot and is a usenet thing that happens
every year. This is the 20th. There we revere all our past pets.

Since I adopt older pets with medical issues, I tend to lose them
sooner obviously but I feel good about a final real home since most
won't even think to take in a 10yo.

Iowna has been such a joy here! She was just shy of 11 when we got
her. Blind by age 9 of glaucoma, she's my first blind dog. She'll be
14 in July. She may not make 14 because of severe arthritis but so
far, Tramadol keeps her steady.

What on earth are you two nattering about now? This is the perfect
example of why groups should be moderated.
