While I am sorry that you are offended, felinefriend, I do not apologize for the statement, for it was made in the highest of regards and compliments to the caretakers of Frankie. What I stated was true; there are many, many such people who would do just what I said and it is so good to read stories of another kind of people; those who care and have compassion and will take the extra effort to make certain a cat such as Frankie has a good life.

I love the animals who live here with me, and those that are wild, but I do not put them in a fairytale or make-believe world; I recognize the real world for all that it is and so admire all the more people such as those who went to such lengths to wrap the love of their home around Frankie. When I see such compassion, I will contrast it with the lack of compassion which so abounds in life.

If anything that I wrote caused you do doubt whether or not I love animals, or to imagine that you love them more, then I am forced to conclude that you did not read my statement closely, or you did not understand it, or both.

Now, I do not wish to fight with you, so continue on and enjoy your feline friends, as I do mine.
