TV9, that is the cutest photo! :) I like the description of giving a pill, too.
From a book I just got, "Cat's Letters To Santa":
Dear Santa:
If I'm napping when you stop by, please wake me. I want to say hello and thank you for the wonderful mouse you got for me last year. (That was from you, right?) I had a great time chasing it around the house, and when I captured the mouse, I dropped it in my masters' bed. Boy were they happy--you should have seen them scream for joy.
P.S. I usually sleep under the couch in the living room.
Butch
Dear Santa,
I'd like a couple of new houseplants this Christmas. I particularly like those spider plants, with those enticing little parts that dangle down. And could you send the plants in macrame hangers? As for the length, they should hang just high enough to be a challenge but not so high that I have no chance to make them come crashing down.

I know no one is going to believe this but I love cats. lol That is such a cute picture. Also, Thunder, your decription of giving a cat a pill is right on. I have to give my old cat a pill everyday. I must say that I am pretty lucky because she is sooooo easy. I have had cats where I would be practically sitting on them to give it to them.
