Oh, wow!
What a gorgeous cat, Visualad!
LaurieX...I love your dog! I see Kiki likes to play the same "bat with the paws" game that Dingo does! My husband bought a pair of gardening gloves so that "El Fierco" could really go nuts with biting and batting and growling like the Rottweiller-wannabe she is!
TheLegacy...what a beautiful bird! (And lady!) I met a Cockatoo in the drugstore. It was my "first Cockatoo," and I didn't know what to do when the bird arched at me. The owner smiled and said "she's inviting you to pet her." "Oh!" I said. I ran my hand along the bird's head and it was wonderful. I had no idea they were so interactive.
