    Some years ago, my daughter was being tested for allergies and it turned out that she was allergic to most animal furs.
    The doctor told her: "You'd better not have any pets with fur. You'd be better keeping fish."
    My daughter hates being patronised and replied instantly: Can I have a piranha then?"

      Sounds and sweet airs, that give delight and hurt not.
      Sometimes a thousand twangling instruments
      Will hum about mine ears, and sometime voices..."

        Our two cats were rescu e cats, and it has been great giving them a Good home.

        We took ours on because,insanely, black cats are hard to home because they aren't photogenic, and thus hard to find homes for.

        Crazy.
        Crazy indeed.
        It is a great feeling giving rescue dogs or cats a new lease if life.

                I love dogs though I have a huge inferiority complex when it comes to cats ... their look of ill-disguised contempt is unmistakeable.

                A wife is the most versatile of all pets. She has the nature of a cat and barks like a dog.

                So who needs another pet?

                  A cat always knows who's boss.

                        Well I don't agree with Gongers. I don't think that well kept cats do make a house smell of cats. Cats kept as indoor pets perhaps if litter trays are not kept clean but not otherwise.
                        But I guess it's all down to an individual's sense of smell and I do enjoy Sauvignon Blanc.

                          That's probably because you have a cat (you aren't my daughter by any chance?)
                          I don't think my house smells of garlic

                          but it does

                          Nothing to do with how well trained the Stinking Rose is
