thanks for the update Karen, and for the good news. It seems that old 'Paw has cornered the market in wonerful women, he even gets a great nurse! Perhaps I'll have to move to the US. By the way, since no-one else has asked, now he's a bit stroger, can you talk to the vet about getting him "fixed". I'm having to use a computer at work as the smell still lingers on my official Mudcat machine!

Seriously though, I think what we have learned about what a wonderful family you all are over the last week or so has ruined his reputation forever. Just hope he doesn't have a relapse trying to spray in the corner long distance to try and restore it!

Best wishes to you all and especially to Pat for a continuing and speedy recovery.
