[Magdalen] If they were only bigger, they'd eat you

I noticed a conservative and very angry columnist pick up on some
reasearch, if that's the correct term in which some animal behaviorists
discovered that in fact if your cat were large enough, he or she would
actually eat you.

The other day, having some work done on the house which opened up the
subflooring, I herded (yes it is possible) our cats over to my office,
where they would be safe.  I put down some food in a bowl for Nancy.

She went over to the bowl and sniffed it, and then walked over to me,
hopped into my lap and started giving me kisses, and eventually nested on
my arm, as she so often does, and settled down in my lap.

My study concludes that the other guy's study is full of horse manure.

I think I've told the story of my cats and my migraine, and how they all
made pax with each other and lay quietly on me, purring curative purrs,
slowly bidding my migraine depart.
