If only it were my birthday, some fairy granting wishes would magically complete a couple of chapters of Anna so I can turn it in. But it's not, so I shall have to write them myself.
As in...
If only we had known that it mattered so much more to the Somadi than it did to any of us whether we were men or women.
And now, Benny spam:
Benny is 4 yrs old. He's a pixie bob, but without the bob, thank goodness. Pixie bobs are a very recent breed from the 80's. His owner paid a pretty penny for him as a kitten, despite his tail. He's needy, but in a nice way. A very gentle cat, not an alpha at all.
And yes, with double paws and something that resembles an opposable thumb.
Benny likes his tummy scratched, especially under his front paws.
And look at what he can do with his tail, too.
And one more...
Pause for the paws

Um, what's a pixie bob? I get the bob part (except whether the desired short tail would be genetically or surgically achieved), but not the, er, pixie. Markings? Pelt? I'm endlessly curious about this kind of thing.
I like his size. To me he looks like a British shorthair, which run larger than American shorthairs. Typical male is up to 18 pounds. Compared to Thomas, who is quite rotund, Benny is all muscle with dense, beautiful fur (I can hear you sneezing from here). And he's a love.
Like I said before, hard to understand that anyone could give him up, easy to understand why we made room for him.
And yes. Cats need tails for balance. I love the way they move them in slow-mo films as they jump or fall.
When we took him out yesterday, he had quite an escort. ALL the cats wanted to parade along.
