Thanks Ivanhoe - they are beautiful animals - although a little temperamental & don't go well with kids who have a tendency to scrunch them up. I guess I'm just lucky that I don't have any allergies to animals. My father in law had a severe allergy to cats - but always kept them because he believed that cats can reduce blood pressure by calming you - I think there's truth in this.
The difference with cats is that they are generally unobtrusive, they hide their crap, they don't yap all day and night but hey - I have many friends who hate cats and I DON'T TAKE IT PERSONALLY !!!
To all the one - eyed, rabid dog lovers out there threatening to shoot us if we dare object to having your slobbering creatures come near us - simple - just keep your animals and their copious amounts of crap out of our way.
