Oh! I SO enjoyed seeing pics of, and reading about, Boone. What an adorable kitten, with such endearing antics. And you present yourselves as splendid cat people. I appreciate what I take to be your attitudes concerning families incorporating cats. My cats and I make up the family I always wanted. Nothing compares. I rescued both of mine whilst working abroad: of course they returned with me to the USA. We've been together for over fifteen years now. It is heartening to know that you folks have Boone.
