Any perfume you'd make with it would have to come with a liability

disclaimer in case of cat attacks!

Reminds me of the Marie Provost song by Nick Lowe, just switch cats

for dachshunds.

Happy New Year back at ya.

Hi everyone,

Just getting caught up after a long holiday ordeal

involving a dreadful virus which took hold of my

entire family. My poor three year-old had to spend

his Christmas in the hospital but we're all okay now.

The kids just starting eating again after spending

almost the whole week unable to get much down so we're

very happy about that.

Anyway this adorable story brought a smile to my face.

I love cats and I know how strongly they feel about

fishy smelling things!

I can just imaginine the amusing reviews for a perfume

which includes notes of squid!

Well, happy, happy New Year everyone! Now I'm off to

have a little champagne with my husband and will

probably fall asleep before midnight!
