- Uh, Paul . . . that's a female (or one-time female) cat, right? I hope
- I don't trip over any inter-species phobias, but that's an expression
- of, er, um, interest in, um, YOU know . . . making kittens.

- It seems that it's not unusual for female cats to respond to human male
- pheromones.

- Now, this big orange cat over here often responds that way, but her
- preference while at the keyboard is to insist that I scratch between
- her ears (when she's not chasing the cursor).
