Hey Donna, I am sorry to hear that you are cat-less at the moment (hopefully, you'll allow additional cats to fill your life with love? TBD) ... man, I love cats as well, but dogs are my true spirit-animal ... The first photo (below) is of my "late best-friends" => Buster (English Spaniel) and Larry (my baby-girl, wolf road-rescue) ... the 2nd & 3rd photos are of "Hector" => my 2 year-old English Spaniel (he has become my new best-friend) DOGS ROCK!! (they are good for your soul) Cheers to all of you pet-owners ... awkward ... I seem to like/get-along with animals better than I get-along with humans (just ask my sweet wife) ; ) whatev ... have a great day, coiners (great animal-thread, Ryro ... keep that shit up!!)
