What a tough choice! Think the husband is still available? Kittens are easier to find.

Excellent point. Of course with cats, if they want to get the man out of the picture, they just make it look like an accident.Lisa! said:And they never says that they go or men should go!
That reminds me, I highly recommend the short story, "The Sin of Madame Phloi" by Lillian Jackson Braun.
