With permission to pass these on. Brian, you'll love some of these!!! "Linda Templeton" <freeman@triton.net> <LIVING-L@rootsweb.com> Cat's Resolutions My human will never let me eat her pet hamster, and I am at peace with that. A warm pizza is not a good place for a nap. I will remember that if I bite the cactus, it will bite back. If I must give a present to my human's overnight guests, my toy mouse is much more socially acceptable than a big live cockroach, even if it isn't as tasty. I will not be miffed at my human all day and then kiss her on the nose at 2:00 a.m. to tell her that she is forgiven and can now pet me. I will not walk on the keyboard when my human is writing important emio gnaioerp ga3qi4 taija3tgv aa35 messages. I will not stick my paw into any container to see if there is something in it. If I do, I will not hiss and scratch when my human has to shave me to get the rubber cement out of my fur. I will not complain that my butt is wet and that I am thirsty after sitting in my water bowl. We will not play Herd of Thundering Wildebeests Stampeding Across the Plains of the Serengeti over my humans' bed while they're trying to sleep. I will not perch on my human's chest in the middle of the night and stare into her eyes until she wakes up. I will not knead my male human's groin at 2 a.m. with claws extended. It seems to cause him some discomfort and he wakes up all grumpy. I will not use the bathtub to store live mice for late-night snacks. I will not eat large numbers of assorted bugs, then come home and puke them up so the humans can see that I'm getting plenty of roughage. I will not lean way over to drink out of the tub, fall in, and then pelt right for the box of clumping cat litter. (It took FOREVER to get the stuff out of my fur.) I will not stand on the bathroom counter, stare down the hall, and growl at NOTHING after my human has finished watching The X-Files. I will not leap into my human's chair which she has temporarily vacated, and then bite my human on the bum when she sits back down. I will not puff my entire body to twice its size for no reason after my human has finished watching a horror movie. I will not bite my human on the rear while she is sitting on the Big White Drinking Bowl. --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free. Checked by AVG anti-virus system (http://www.grisoft.com).

If you were asking permission, Vicky, you didn't wait for an answer, you just ASSUMED as so many people do nowadays. Not that I'm bothered except it is good manners. And if you weren't going to wait for an answer, then why ask?
