If you live with cats, this will not surprise you...

Cairns cat saves owners from fire.

My Siamese cat woke me up, rather insistently, when there was a fire truck in front of the building sending it’s red lights into my apartment. I was told (in the middle of a freezing and snowy winter night) to put on my robe and go find out what was going on. I reported back that there was a small fire two buildings down.

(Here’s another cat story: “Lessons Learned from Dahni, The Eyeless Wonder Cat.”)

And here are my friends, Antigone on the left (answers to “Tiggy”) and Wollstonecraft on the right (answers to “Wollly”):

Your cats are lovely!

I had a beautiful cat for ten years and he really brought a lot of joy to me and my family...unfortunately,we had to put him to sleep in November due to a tumor...Saying goodbye to him that morning before going to work, knowing that I won't see him when I come back - painful, painful, painful....

Dear Jasna (and Panos),

That would be heart breaking. I would find it hard, perhaps impossible, to bear.

Drop me a note sometime on what you're up to.

Best wishes for a better year,
Tom
