Well, I hate to tell it, but Scooter was originally names "Pooter" (for very obvious olfactory reasons), but we decided she needed a name we could use in polite company so that's how she got to be Scooter. She lived up to that name pretty well too coz she was FAST when she was chasing the feather stick.
What a beautiful girl that is! Bless her heart. Sounds like you've had a horrible time with cats. Hopefully things have turned around for you and the ones you have left are doing great!
One more thing----I can't stand it----where on earth did you get your screen name! I mean the visual in my mind is not too pretty--LOL!
Never mind I see I'm not the only one who was interested in the origin of your name. Too funny!
Yeah, I guess that's my version of "running around like a chicken with it's head cut off". It's a Southern thing I guess. Sorry 'bout the nasty visual, I didn't think about that when I picked it. ;o)
Too funny!
The only expression we had that was similar was when there was a huge rain storm we'd say it was a "frog strangler"
LOL! Yeah, I've heard that one too. It's a good one.
