<p>[QUOTE=&quot;silverthwait, post: 91155, member: 103&quot;]This reminds me: my mother, who would <i>never</i> have harmed an animal, was responsible for two near-disasters with my very first cat.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>One freezing winter day, Kitty yowled to go out.&nbsp; Mother opened the door, out went Kitty, and the door was hastily closed.&nbsp; Too hastily.&nbsp; A little black fur ball was left on the carpet.&nbsp; T&#039;was the tip of Kitty&#039;s tail...&nbsp; <img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies/frown.png" class="mceSmilie" alt=":(" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>Then, a year or so later, we moved to a new house.&nbsp; Kitty gave his usual &quot;I want to go out&quot; yowl, and Mother, who was in her new bedroom, opened the window and put Kitty out on the porch roof as usual.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>Except the porch roof was now in front of <i>my </i>room, and Kitty went down three stories!</p><p><br /></p><p>No ill effects from either adventure...but that tail was forever blunted.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
