Fred's name

Fred now knows his name and comes when called. Mind you, he doesn't come to the person who's calling; rather, he waits for that person to step back inside the house, and then he comes to the back porch to see what sort of culinary treat that person has left for him. But he knows his name and comes when called, all the same.

(I'm not sure how to interpret the fact that I spend a lot of time blogging about a stray cat. But I just wantcha to know that I'm aware of it, even if I don't fully understand it. So quit snickering.)

And therefore you inspire me to tell you of Luigi's latest exploit. Today she was at the vet to have her claws clipped (she has six extra toes, some of which are very hard to get at and will ingrow if not regularly shorn), and all sixteen pounds of her rared up and called the vet some very nasty words, indeed--and his mother, as well. We assured him that *we* did not teach her those words. But I guess she had a wide experience before she showed up on our doorstep, and she hasn't forgotten that handy vocabulary.
