worked swallowed me, back to fterris felis silvestris.

I talk to my neighbors' cats en espanol (they don't judge my accent), they hear "gatita"!, and come to my porch for belly rubs.

I've been to the original sanrio gallery in ginza, I wasn't a sanrio kid, but it was still kickass for a 12-year-old.

If anybody still needs a feline fix after the show, there's Warner Bros. 1952 "Feed the Kitty", which partly inspired Pixar's "Monsters Inc."
