Phew! Not all of the mail this week concerned the email problems.  For example,  here's some advice offered by a colonist:

Healthcare for Cats:
Do you hate going to the vet? I do, too. All those new annoying hands trying to pick you up and check you over. How rude! Well, you MUST go, hissing or otherwise. If you didn't go, how would you and your human know whether you were sick or healthy? If you love your human and yourself, you will do two things for the both of you. You will Not fight when your human tries to bring you to the vet, and you will remind your human that you NEED to go to the vet by hissing loud all day so your person will take you there!

To Socratail's Question:
How clean can a litterbox really be if you never flush it?
Chester Cheetah replied:

It all depends on the dog in the house!! I have my dog trained to clean it out at nights while our humans are asleep; then they can't yell at him!! It is nice, at times like these, to have a dog as a housemate!! (purr, purr)
