Well, I like all animals. We used to have a tabby cat that liked to come into our back garden and sit in the shade. He/she knew they wouldn't be pestered by us. Occasionally he/she would dileberately try to look cute (by raising his/her paw) in order to get some extra tit-bits (usually chicken). At present we have some squirrels that regularly (almost daily) come after the nuts we put out for the birds. We even had some wild mice living under our shed at one point, a few years ago. A neighbours rabbit managed to tunnel it's way under the fence before and we have had plenty of other occasional visitors too (frog/toad, kestrel (feeding on another smaller bird) and pigeons).

Many a late night of hacking has been made more pleasant for me by my previous cat 'Homer' (who was run over by an idiot who thought his right not to be late was more important than Homer's right to live) and my current cat 'Pentina'. I can well understand the loss you must feel. What is it about old computers and cats. Quite a few people who like the former like the latter... -tony
