Catgirl headbutts her way in : Ok fellow cat people... can we give
eachother some slack? Zeitgeist, sadly, people often do take very literally
everything that gets typed... that's what most of us go by when we read
these things... so, it was natural for some people to actually believe you
actually fling your kitty across the room. When I first started typing in
newsgroups, I got a rude awakening as to what to type and how to say certain
things and what not to say so as to not be totally misinterpreted. Its not
at all like talking. Its a hassle, but ya gotta watch what you type and
**be** as literal as you can. You can really tick people off without
meaning to, and get a virtual black eye! I've had them too. Now for you
guys who took such offense to Zeitgeist... please let up a bit. This person
loves the kitty. This person came to our newsgroup to ask for advice. And,
look at the pictures... well cared for, loved kitty, proud caregiver posting
pictures... and came to us for advice. We all love our kitties... please
let's just help eachother.

taking people SO literally with typing... LOL If I have not perceived your
