brat cat dewey is doing fine. he's 13 now but you couldn't tell it. has not lost any energy, pep, muscles or appetite. the only way you can tell his age is his facial features have narrowed & his black hair is graying.

I decided to go horseback riding, which I haven't done in quite a while. Well, I got on the horse and started out slow, and then we went a little faster, and then we were going as fast as the horse could go. All of a sudden I fell off and caught my foot in the stirrup and the horse was dragging me around in a circle. It wouldn't stop, it just kept going around and around. Thank goodness the store manager at WalMart came out and unplugged the carousel.
