Heh, I had a Siamese cat who would go for walks with me, but
not on a leash. Tried it (a halter type) ... she'd go into her I'M
PARALIZED routine and sit there like a rock. I'd take her to the
park, she'd just stay close on the trail, no problem.

Ferrets are awfully cute, a bit of a handful I bet, but adorable and
funny. What the heck. That was funny about the boxer. I happen
to have a soft spot for boxers, too.
