    Thanks, everyone. Mrspunkysmom, yes, they are named for Simon and River from "Firefly" and "Serenity."

    In the last few minutes, Simon has climbed the (still undecorated) Christmas tree, and River has run across the piano and played a tune. It is fun having kittens, but it is a totally different world from the senior kitty world we have lived in in recent years. Love it, though!

    Hee hee - glad River is already practicing her musical skills! Is your tree anchored to the wall just in case? Fishing line and a couple thumbtacks does wonders for tree stability! Of course, when we had Grace, the tree went in a platen. She was our Great Dane mix that we swore had no nerve endings connecting her tail to her brain, so her wagging tail could clear half the ornaments from the tree in one moment, and she also thought candy canes were the best treat ever ...

    My deepest sympathy to you and your family over your loss of your beloved, precious Saphirah.

    I meant," said Ipslore bitterly, "what is there in this world that truly makes living worthwhile?"
    Death thought about it.

    Brrrr, I've been Frosted! Thank you, Asiel and Pomtzu!


    "That's the power of kittens (and puppies too, of course): They can reduce us to quivering masses of Jell-O in about two seconds flat and make us like it. Good thing they don't have opposable thumbs or they'd surely have taken over the world by now." -- Paul Lukas

    I'm sorry about Saphirah. It's painful even when they are seniors. May I ask how old she was?

    In Firefly, River was the artistic, athletic sibling. It's been years since I've had a cat play the piano.
