Kitty Christmas Presents

I got this from one of my vets (where I get that special prescription food), Lake Lansing Road Veterinary Clinic. There was some additional text encouraging me to make checkup appointments, but this is the part I want to share:

Food and treats fill a furry stomach, toys help to pass the time, a cozy bed makes naptime oh so comfy, but at the end of the day—or first thing in the morning!—those padding paws come looking for you.

This busy holiday season, make sure you give the gift of time to your cat. Toys and treats are great, but it's your love and attention that will make your feline friend's holidays the brightest while everything else is at its busiest. As we head into this hectic time of year, with all its parties, presents, and pressures, be sure to take time out on a busy day to sit on the couch and rub those well-loved ears.

Karma's a Bitch

Reading this year's Christmas Massacre list of laid off WotC employees brought to mind this Japanese proverb:

"If you sit by the river long enough, you will see the body of your enemy float by."

Aaaaand... there goes one now!

One of the benefits of getting older is having lived long enough to see the wheel turn.
