Bill, I don't think I'd let my cat watch Fox or Rush, they put unreasonable fears in impressionable minds. My sister has several homeless cats in her neighborhood. I don't think there are any current plans for redistributing Whiskas, giving them an allotted share, so they are entirely dependent on the kindness of strangers, like my sister, who buys nutritious, yet probably not as tasty as Whiskas, food. There are a number of free-loading cats who get a good meal at home but who eat the food as well. My sister doesn't care, the alternative would be to let the homeless cats starve. One day, one of the regular homeless cats showed up at my sister's house severely mangled from a car running over him. My sister took him to the vet - alas! he had no medical insurance. The vet offered 2 choices, euthanasia or have a kind soul pay several thousand dollars out of her own pocket to save the cat. The cat was very lucky, he landed on my sister's doorstep and not mine. I would shudder if we resort to treating people in dire circumstances like we treat cats.

I thought you said "Whiskey redistribution" and was about to ask you where I could get in line. Darn the bad luck!
My cats are all Republicans. The fattest ones eat first.

I would like to make it clear that Pixiamom is writing about our OTHER sister and not me.
