ArchivesHi All!
"This is recent in the scheme of things, but what happened to wonderful witty Andrea?"
Thanks for the props, Barb!
I'd been in rehearsal, then a three-week production, then a week in Florida. Just got back last week, and starting to write on the boards again (this and haggisbutt).
Hope all is well with everyone!:)

Welcome back, Andrea! ...
I've been off the board for a while, too....we recently had a tragic student death at the elementary school where I work.

Barb,
Zen (((hugs))) and a :kitty: of your own to hold during those bleak times. (I usually do this on a different board, but they're temporarily down [not like you and your colleagues], but I think that it might work over here, too.

Thanks for the hugs, Phyllis. My three kitties have been extra cuddly this week...they seem to know when I need it.

Well, they are like almost any cat, except they are a bit more tolerant of some shenanigans.
One thing that you must be careful of is tear-staining on the face (besides the tangling/matting that Andrea had already mentioned. If you'd like, I'll try to get the on-line Cat Fancy magazine's address (if you e-mail me again, I'll send the addie to you directly.) They have listings for reputable cat breeding clubs and federations that may have representatives "near" you. :) They (the reputable breeders) will be more than happy to answer any reasonable questions (like Davidh, Nanaea and you concerning questions on this board. :D)

Thanks for the advice, Gaia 'n' Andrea :)
We test-drove little kitty for an afternoon, to see how she would interact with Nephele. I'm afraid things didnt quite work out: Nephele (23 months old) couldnt disinguish the cat from her inanimate friends, and playfully pulled her ears and poked at her eyes. So I guess it will be another year of two before we can safely host a living feline!

Oh, Greek one! :)
The web address for CAT FANCY is http://www.catfancy.com . You don't have to have a member of the feline race in your household to peruse the e-magazine, and it may be helpful in the future if you do decide to try again (after your disciple of Eris grows up a little.)
I think this current issue talks about flea and tick control (might have been last issue :blush:) and I'm not exactly sure what the flea/tick situations are in your part of the world. They also have links to various breeders and, on occassion, your "average" Heinz 57 (feline for mutt.)

Persians are fine. Low energy, aloof, high-maintenance. You have to brush and detangle their undercoat every day. If it goes neglected, it can develop serious knots which may need to be surgically removed.
(I have a Birman. The long-haired beauty of a Persian, without the thick undercoat.)

Could you do us a small favor...
Get some of your coleagues together (preferably female) then recite one of the more famous passages from Shakespeare's "kilted play"? It seems that Nanaea's exorcism hasn't worked, and my spells haven't worked, either.
We've been inundated with people who have been asking for our opinion (as you've probably seen already), not giving a fook that this messageboard is primarily about the meanings/history of names, not about "Do you prefer Shithouse Rock Smith or Bathroom Humor Smith?" (Sorry about the language, Mike, but the first several messages I clicked on for the past several days have been opinion postings.)
