Persephone, as I have mentioned once or twice, is a pebble short of a
beach.

This morning she was playing "bed mouse" with Dave's toes when she
mis-judged the distance between herself and the bed and bumped her
head. This happens often enough that we are not concerned (there
seems to be nothing we can do to stop her anyway), but it makes us
laugh. This morning Dave picked her up, cuddled her (which started
her purr-motor) and told her, "Persephone, you have the brain of a
much younger cat".


Aww, how cute. I visited my niece's kittens today (err, my niece's *cat's*
kittens of course), and one of the girls is what my niece calls a blonde.
I'll have to tell her that bit about the brain of a much younger cat. The
funny thing is, this girl is the lightest grey kitten of the litter, so she
really is the blonde.

OH! Thank you! I didn't have pen & paper in hand and was relying
on my much older brain to retain the info! Obviously that didn't
work. Thank you very much!


I cheated. I remembered the print's title, and looked it up that
way.

At least you remembered the name of the print! We laughed so hard over
that. This "Pet Hospital" (that was the name of the place) had live cats
running around, too. One was curled up in a chair next to the receptionist,
another was on a pillow in the window and a third on top of the desk.

Thank you again, I ordered a copy of the print

I had a look at your niece's kittens and they are just the *cutest*
things! I showed them to Dave too (he has a big soft spot for Russian
Blues, amongst other things) and he agreed that they're pretty
wonderful cats.
