Five pounds is a teeny cat. Even Bootygirl weighs about 7. Funny thing is even Bosley (24 POUNDS NOW!!) is afraid of her. And don't forget KFC, wasn't she 4 lbs near the end? I think she could easily have intimidated a dog, not with size or strength, but with attitude. Joyce -- "No." -- Rosa Parks |

I think the point Pam was making was that 5 lbs. is *not* average for a cat, so the assumption was faulty. Joy |

Hello, Since the average kitty weighs about 5 pounds, you will need to own 8 kitties to equal a 40 pound dog. 5 pounds? That cat is hovering on the edge of a Karen Carpenter-style stroke. That is animal abuse, to keep your pet that slender. Truly According to Jesus, in John 8:32, truth will set you free. Yes, and who could be freer than a dead person? That's all your walk with Jesus will ever bring you. A closer association with the grim reaper. Because 99.9999999 percent of the time, Christ will not intervene in your situation. He will only teach you how to LIVE WITH IT. And eventually how to die in it. And you know that's true. The Nicea Meana Manna |
