She's 1 for 10 generally in the bad kitty department. Tracey Werner -- Thank you! And yes, she might have been aware we both need help. Our eyes are NOT what they used to be! Sniffie — Well, so does Shadow. She’s 1 for 10 generally in the bad kitty department.

Tracey Werner — Thank you! And yes, she might have been aware we both need help. Our eyes are NOT what they used to be!

Second, my cat Buddy has been known to do stuff like that, but usually his laying on the keyboard of my laptop screws things up that I can't figure out how to fix. So kudos to your husband for setting it right again. Maybe she somehow KNEW you needed help reading the words on the screen lately! First of all Shadow, is a beauty!

I think the fate of those animals would be much worse without it. I'm sure the kitty was so traumatized, it'll be almost impossible to bring her out of her shell. Poor kitty.

Well, she got this cat that had apparently been hit by a car. It's "fine" now, but it acts so strangely. She'll meow at you like she wants something, but as soon as you come near or lean down to pet her she'll dart off. I've actually spent twenty minutes crouched down waiting for her to come to me. When she finally did, I got to pet her for a few seconds then she darted off.

She got a big head from reading all these wonderful comments and now she's holding out for more money, a dental plan and a time share in Miami.

We've been lavishing praise on her since the discovery. She's got a big head now and wants us to wait on her hand and foot. Oh, wait. That's EVERY day. Sarah -- I wouldn't think it weird at all. Cats can be very handy. It's possible Shadow can change the oil in your car, too. Mike -- Laughing my head off! I think every IT department could use a cat on staff. If for no other reason to hiss and scratch at people who ask dumb questions. Hmmm, people have brought their dogs to work in my building. Wonder if I could make tomorrow "Bring your cat to work day."
