Hi all! Just wanted to say, thanks, Dick B., for a couple of happy, funny stories. I'm sure we all needed them! I once knew a three-legged cat named Lucky who got along quite well or better than other cats-- maybe the name helps. Music came up again while I was beside myself over Amelia-- last Sat. on ST: Voyager, Ensign Harry Kim played his clarinet in one scene. Cully happened to be walking through the living room then, and froze in his tracks, staring at the tv until the playing was over. He doesn't respond to orchestrated music, rock, or jazz-- he seems to really like solo instruments, and I guess they don't have to be live. I seem to have one partially deaf ferret and one hyper-sensitive one... Regina, happy her babies are well Amelia, who actually war-danced this morning and Cully, who's being marginally decent to Amelia but plainly resents the fact that she's sleeping in his old cage [Posted in FML issue 1574]
