Speaking of cats... normally I absolutely love my pair- but yesterday I almost made crock-pot kitty-kat surprise! They were nuisances all day long and got into trouble more than my patience held-out! I was cussin''em left & right. Little turds! The absolute last straw was when I was trying to change the sheets on my bed and as I put the freshly-washed, still-warm mattress-pad on, Lilly puked-up a huge gooey fur-ball right smack-dab in the center of it! Then she looked me in the eye w/ one of those "what are you gonna do about it" looks cats are famous for!
