Mark Twain
"There are two novels that can change a bookish 14-year old's life: The Lord of the Rings and Atlas Shrugged. One is a childish fantasy that often engenders a lifelong obsession with its unbelievable heroes, leading to an emotionally stunted, socially crippled adulthood, unable to deal with the real world. The other, of course, involves orcs."

A sensible choice. I love Froggy’s markings
froggy at the frog pond! and i love that little white squiggle on froggy’s nose.
She really has a lovely personality, but her best feature is her purr. If she is out and about I bend over to scratch her head just to get her started. It’s like kick-starting a Harley – almost loud enough to rattle windows.
Awww. Froggy is such a cutie. I like that nose stripe. It is similar to my Rocky Girl’s nose stripe. Very striking. I never thought about it until now, but I guess the area around the pond would be cooler. Smart kitty.
The multiple old live oaks provide all kinds of shade, and she doesn’t have to go looking for a drink. There are top-minnows in the pond that eat the mosquito larvae, so they’re not a problem.
Thought of you and “the kids” as I wandered around the Cat Show this weekend.
Hmm. A cat show for ferals would be… interesting :). Problem is, you’d have to hold it in a major city with multiple trama centers, because the amount of bloodshed would overwhelm any smaller city’s medical facilities, heh.

Well, it would be a good place to sell body armor and first aid supplies. 😉
I saw a backstage look at a cat show, and watching cats being placid and relaxed while being bathed and blow-dried made me cringe. My first cat, Koshka, had a flea allergy in the days before the current ‘spot’ treatments, so I had to bathe her. It was wielding gauntlets and a Levi jacket over a quilted liner. Not a good time.
Bryan, Froggy is beautiful! Not a feral, I presume!
Actually, she is technically feral, but happens to be friendly. If you accidentally have her follow you inside, as has happened, and you close the door, you will find out how feral she can be.
