Well, in the spirit (no pun intended) of levity, before you invoke any spells (smile), watch "Pet Cemetary" again

LOL, you cheered me up. That was a good one.

Thank you for making me laugh Slynky. Intimidator did as well in one of his IM's.

My nephews just broke my old Kenner A-Wing fighter from their old 80's Star Wars toys line. I am hurt again.

My dad >might< take the trainset down...in about, say, 15 years...But then, I'd probably have kids by then who might wreck it...

I wish to thank you atrocities for your condolence. I just had my Cat put down. For the Last week she wasn't eating and what worried me most she didn't drink from the tap. She would wait at the bathroom and when someone walked by she would lead them into the bathroom and wait for some one to turn on the tap for her. The disturbing part was she still led me, but she then looked at the water running from the tap. She was sort of sniffing the water but it was sort of "Sorry but I just can't do it". My mother is away and I felt guilty that, just perhaps, I was doing things wrong because she had a dirty chin caked with old food. I have been giving her new food and clean water but she wouldn't eat or drink. I finally decided that screw the vet expense I had to find out what was wrong. The vet showed me her tongue was paralysed and said he needed to talk to my mum about giving her an anasthetic. "Ok" I thought " a bit of anasthetic to calm her down so he can have a better look". "Once you talk to my mother about it I'll come back to get her" I said. He said there was no need. "Aha" I thought "overnight observation". While talking to my mother on the phone to tell her the vet wanted to talk, she explained what the anasthetic meant. I am an intelligent person but I am also strange in that I don't make connections very well (my mind is on a different road to normal people. My mother used to say I had no common sense). Apparently she had a stroke. I am not upset, except for my nervous breakdowns I don't have much emotion, and if she couldn't eat or drink then her time was finished. I just walked upstairs though and realised there was no cat around and how empty the house is now. I guess what I will miss most is going to sleep and waking up of a morning with her body sleeping next to my legs.

Edit: sorry, almost forgot. Sorry about your loss as well.

My wifes "familiar" does that also. Since she weighs alittle over 20 pounds seeing a huge black longhair leap up on the sink is quite a sight
