Murray.... Gee, just what I need - another cat! In fact, since Scooter's getting on in years, I prolly WILL be adopting another kitty over the summer. Miss Scooter's ruled the roost at Casa-de-Barb for the past ten years, beginning when she ran up to me at the mailbox whilst crying out at the top of her lungs "MOOOOOOMY! Where WERE you Mommy - I've been waiting here for the longest time for you, Mommy! TAKE ME HOME.... NOW!" And sun-of-a-gun, that's just what I did... (smiling) And we've been joined at the hip ever since. Then there's Buzzy - HE'S my resident-juvenile-delinguent, and like Peter Pan of yore, he doesn't want to grow up and plans to remain a mischievous kid his entire life. I don't know 'bout any cat named "ERNIE." Tho if he's lost and homeless out and about here in L.A., somehow I have no doubt that he'll find his way to my home...
