LOL!
I know EXACTLY the phenom you describe.
You sound like your bigger brother.
(Darks)
I also understand about the hunters.... i had a half-sheltie, German sherphard dog that i HAD to put hunter's orange bandanna on because people mistook her for a young doe... ( blind, usually drunk townies... WITH guns! )
What is your kitty's name?
I know all about Triatan and Kieran....
One time a farmer's cow was shot. How do you mistake something that's
black & white & says "mooooo"?! My cat's full name is Shadow Racer.
He has a tendency to race from one end of the house to the other & back.
It's usually shortened to just Shadow, which still suits him. He's my shadow.
He's mostly black, but has a white patch on his throat/chest area (it looks a
bit like a cravat). He doesn't weigh as much as kieran, but he is still a big cat
(about 18 or 19 lbs) & he's all muscle. He acts like a panther except when I'm
around. Then he's a big baby. He also thrusts out his lower lip & "pouts", but
he looks like a monkey when he does it, so we usually laugh & upset him all
the more.
