Tell me about it. The wife and I have seven. All rescued either from the outside or from shelters. God how they can manipulate the heck out of you. If they're hungry they pester you by staring at you or rubbing incessantly up against you. They hog the bed. They just know how to work on you. The littlest one we have is called "Peanut'' because she's so small and she's my wife's baby. Spoiled rotten. Peanut showed up at our backdoor about four years ago with her right hind leg busted clean in two. We took her to the vet and they tried to fuse it back together with a splint but it was no good, the leg had to be amputated. Hasn't slowed Peanut down. She runs around the house like a demon.

That happened to my cat but the second vet operated on her and inserted a rod from the top of the leg to the bottom and wired it together. About two months later, I took her back to have the rod removed and she was good to go...........
