I must say that Penni has many caring friends on this thread. And cats have many caring friends on this thread. This thread continues to be refreshing with or without alcohol.....:)

PS......Saw Beloved last night. I recommend it but be prepared for a jolt or two. A beautiful movie, a disturbing movie....a beautiful country.....a disturbing country. You'll see.

Dear Gaugie,
Maybe the moral is not to forget how caring and kind people can be, even when it demands something from them.
Or maybe it means that you can't tell a dead cat by its coat.
As Shakespeare said, A black cat is a black cat is a black cat.
Or as Eliot even more sagely said, A cat is not a dog."
The two feral cats got in a fight last night. They're pushing their luck. I'm feeding them only because of that scene in Gone With the Wind that always made me cry, when Melanie says to Scarlett, "If mah Ashley is somewhere up North, Ah hope some Northern woman is being kind to him."
Although I've always thought Melanie would be placed in a Special Ed class today.
Ammo is ready for two new kittens; he's already named them Rosie and Indigo.
So I hope you can see how very much I got from your words.
