Kingrattus: I loved your comment about the claw "shells". I scared myself stupid (not far to go) one night when I gave Grasshopper a grooming girl time - when I got to her hind claws, one was kind of sticking out, and I was figuring since she's getting old, maybe her toes were getting arthritic and wouldn't retract well anymore. So I carefully clipped all the claws, but when I got to the "bad" one, it wiggled loose in my hand! I freaked, the cat just looked at me, and I tried to shove it back in place. Needless to say, it was a shedding "shell", that came off in my fingers. After I shrieked, Dadcat came out, and by then I was laughing my a** off, realizing how dumb I was!


Lut: Dadcat always calls the "naughty" pose "One eyed cat peeking in the seafood store".
