I always thought of it as "getting rid if a cad". ROTFL I like the way you think ;-) Of course you needed to keep your cool when he made the demand - don't know if I could have held it together long enough. Like several others have already posted, someone who would make such a demand around here wouldn't be around very long. Although I've always had the reputation of being pretty laid back, I have a pretty bad temper, and one of the things which would cause me to lose it completely is someone threatening to harm one of the crew here. So I'm afraid that my reaction to the original poster's FIL threatening any animal with a mallet would have ended with a police cruiser or two showing up - whether it was one of mine or just a stray that I saw threatened. -- Steve Touchstone, faithful servant of Sammy, Little Bit and Rocky [remove Junk for email] http://www.sirinet.net/~stouchst/index.html |

There *are* cases in which people have to find a new home for their cat - allergy, long-distance move under circumstances that don't allow for bringing the cat (eg poor student moving very cheaply), move to a nursing home or other facility that doesn't allow pets. I knew of a case not long ago where someone had their cat euthanized because she couldn't find a place to live that allowed cats. It turned out that she couldn't find a place to live that she liked that allowed cats - ie she didn't look into a lot of the private & basement apartments. It could be worse - some people in my neighbourhood simply left their kitten on the street when they moved out of the province. A friend who knew of the situation and knew I was thinking of getting a second cat put us together, and I adopted Betsy, at an age of about 6 months. I still don't know *why* they had a kitten when they must have known that they were going to move and leave her behind so soon! Cheryl |

wouldn't even associate with this type. Flippy Ditto! When I first met Nancy (back when we both worked for one of the local newspapers) I was impressed that she was a cat person. When we started seeing each other I was also impressed when she made it clear that anyone who wanted to see her had to get along with DD cat as well. Dan |

What amazes me is that men like this seldom lack for a partner to share their
insanity. Reminds me of an idiot friend I had who didn't feel loved if her guy didn't have fits of jealousy.
