I didn't see any squirrels in that bunch...

I didn't know Giant Gambian Rat got adopted!

Does anybody out there need a cute hamster? Besides Sonny, that is....

Mr. Hamster

I think that squirrels are harder to tame.

It's possible, though, or Mr. Rocket J. Squirrel couldn't have become such a wonderful thespian.

Just think of the possibilities of a dog, on a cat, on a rat.

It wouldn't be impossible if you would volunteer to be the rat. I bet you could hold a sturdy cat, who could hold a teacup-sized froufrou dog.

This would make a nice scene in my opera. If people could believe their eyes, they could believe in the miracles talked about in the libretto.

But wouldn't this possibly relegate your opera to a carnivalesque freak sideshow? Or do you just want butts in the seats, and I don't mean Sutter Butts.

I'll practice my singing just in case.

Hey Uly who you calling a freak, what with your avatars and all.

I think it might follow in the classical tradition of Rigoletto, where the tragic hero is a hunchbacked jester, or Pagliacci, which is about a clown with issues. There's nothing freakier than an angry clown.

Many operas are all about metaphorical freaky sideshows, as are many modern books and movies.

Do you people realize how difficult it is to live with a dog who is a Deep Thinker? Sheesh.

Poor Merv.

HeCATe (old cat) isn't all that happy with Siva (eight weeks old) either.

She'll come around.

Well I own no animals, but I had dinner tonight at a friend's house and they have a 19 year old cat. His name is Mack and he has lived in Vermont, Long Island, Manhattan, Cozumel, Los Angeles and now Santa Fe where he dodges the coyotes. He's very noisy, they say it's because he's part Siamese.

Siamese cats are always On.

Excellent! I have the most wonderful idea for incorporating this into the choreography for the Dance at the Shrine! You can still wear your dancing girl costume. This will be magnificent.

Thank you for volunteering, Josie. It's not the sort of thing I could necessarily have asked of you, as some dogs are afraid of cats and giant Gambian rats. You are a good friend and a real trouper!

MissCaseyGirl would be happy to get in on this!

She would run up to the doggie and woof and woof and woof! And the kitty would run off! And she would chase it!

No rats here, so maybe not what you had in mind?

Wow!

The Bremen Town Musicians.

IIRC.

That's the one. Brothers Grimm, I believe.

When I was very little, maybe 5 or 6, my parent used to shop at Lennox Square in Atlanta (Buckhead actually). There was a copy of this sculpture in one of the walk-ways between stores, and my dad used to take me to see it and tell me the story. Fond memories...
