Zoe: Preacher, don't the Bible have some pretty specific things to say about killing? Book: Quite specific. It is, however, somewhat fuzzier on the subject of kneecaps.

heya, anyone have personal experience making five year cats finally wear collars, and having it stick?
I want to start letting them outside at my new place, but I want to keep a leash on them for at least a couple of evenings so they know which apartment to come back to (short of putting one of my dirty socks under the welcome mat outside) before I let them loose into the wild wild suburbs on their own.
Or maybe I should just kick their butts outside and wait for the nauseating worry to kick in.
