This was a cheerful way to start my day which is much needed at the mo. Chester the cat was real cute. Wish my mom's cat was that well mannered - she's a real scratcher.
Thanks for that Jesse.

Based upon the comments, though, I'll be sure to do so as soon as I get home! I am quite certain that my two Miniature Schnauzers will absolutely MAKE me get up and walk after my surgery. I've seen so much on these forums about doctors demanding that we walk, walk, walkafter surgery, so I see that as a good thing.

The poop would be the other thing that puts me off. Would love to get a scruffy mangy rescue dog to drag me out of the door every day.
