Awe, I saw Cats, the day it came out! I really enjoyed it...oh they put music to TS's Macavity poetry...got it! Cool Beans! Yes, it did get bad reviews and the computer-generated segments were off, I thought I saw hands instead of paws at one time, ha. Rebel's part was adorable. I love musicals.

Apparently going on my daughter's advice the CGI looks 'cursed'...the movie had bad reviews. I watched it yesterday, not too bad. I love the Macavity score though ... we've all known a Macavity or two in our lifetime, err well "this" lifetime.

I'm coming back as a mouse in the next life, no cats please! Quite amusing LL. Robert

I lived through a rat and mouse plague once, terrible things. The smell atrocious and they get into everything... not that I'm aligning that with you good sir in any way. Red Belly Blacks eat them for breakfast and dinner - cats just play with them. Take out the "o", surely a muse in the next life would be better (but not the moirai, although they had enormous power).

Although I favor dogs, as a kid I favored cats. My cat, Tabby- was huge and as devoted as a cat can be to me. God bless..

Cats once they let you in, and you're bonded, are loving and devoted. Rescue cats/dogs the best. Not sure what your living situ is Lindley (i.e. house/apartment), if you haven't a furry friend, look into it...

I love dogs and cats. I'm on 10th top floor of an apartment, so a bit tricky to have a big dog here. And I have two cats now, so if I was to get a dog, it would have to be a smaller apartment friendly dog, that gets on with cats (docile). I've been seriously considering this, but wondering if complete madness (a smaller dog, eg cavalier, can't stand poodles or those rat dawgs chihuahua maybe a cocker or bulldog (english, or french). The big dogs have always been much loved in my family when we were all younger. Check out below.
