I should take some time out from all the ranting and raving to note that Dru, my new cat, came out from under the bed last night, played around in the room, jumped up on the bed, and came over to be petted, all without any coaxing from me. Apparently she’s realized I know where the canned food is and how to get it. 🙂 She’s the cutest thing. With the exception of climbing on the curtains, that is.
