Apologies for going off on a tangent. I have trouble letting go of things I perceive as wrong.
I've had cats most of my life and will continue to as long as I'm drawing breath. Here's a pic of me with a buddy of mine from half a lifetime ago when he was around four months old. I used to take him swimming at Jordan Lake (in the secluded coves) until he got too big to handle. I stopped at a rest stop on I-40 to let him take care of some business when he was about 2 months old and got surrounded by travelers who were freaking out, taking pictures, and everybody wanted to hold him. FWIW, tigers are the ultimate chick magnet.
