Thanks Matt, me too.

And again - I do have trouble with the word "slave".<g>
I am a good carer, a good catmom, the crazy cat lady, whatever you
want,
but I seem to have been a slave in a former life.<g>
I never ever will call someone "master".
Just can't do it. Even if it's meant as a joke.
I am totally nuts about my cats, yes, thats true.
As everyone here is.<hihi>

love
Bettina
