Catty1 - Thanks. Psyco actually has a very interesting story behind her name. She used to be called Taffy. She was owned by an elderly woman who allowed her to run loose and get abused. She was so badly abused that she learned to hate people with a vengence. When the lady went into a nursing home Taffy ended up in the rescue I was fostering for. She was wild with aggression. She was so bad that she was scheduled to be put to sleep. But I wanted to give her a chance. I have a knack for the hard cases. I brought her home and put her in my spare room. She stayed there for many months. Anytime anyone would walk past teh door she would scream and hiss and try to attack them from under the door. If you went in to her room you had to be dressed in winter gear to protect yourself. She would litterally throw herself at you to attack you with her teeth and all four feet. Well with a lot of patence, training, behaviour modifaction she has become a wonderful lap cat. She has been with us four years now. She is safe around children and other animals. But those crazy first months is why she has the name Psycho. If you say her name she comes running purring all the way.

I am in Southern Alberta.
