I'm not by nature a cat person. But our cats love me to death and will obey any imperative command I give (Get Down!...Get Back In The House!) especially if accompanied by a single clap. <G> They also know what the phrases "Malt" and "Canned Cat Food" mean and will come immediately if you ask them if they want some. ("Malt" is a malt or salmon flavored hairball gel........apparently quite yummy) xponent Catmunication Maru rob _______________________________________________ http://www.mccmedia.com/mailman/listinfo/brin-l
