I was just sipping my morning tea and reading the news, when I saw the headline of this article and thought, "Oh no, those poor tigers!" Just shows how behind the times I am. Jeez.

Gracious has a new scratch pad and I sprinkled a generous amount of catnip on it, and now when she is clawing the wall hangings and pulling my dresses off their hangers, etc., I am all irritated and try to put her on time-out. Hopefully I won't send my kids such mixed messages.
