Dear Conflicted -
 
Me, not. Mine are Seven (now 12), Kitten (now 10), Goldenrod and Darth  
(littermates, whose original owner had a huge warm heart but little  
imagination), 
and Squink, who came to me out of nowhere on moving day, and had  to be 
eyedropper-fed. Now a slinky black terror with intense yellow eyes. Rescue  
animals 
all.
 
I don't want to appear to be giving short shrift to the dogs, but that  would 
only make a long story longer.
 
It was hard finding a landlord who would take 5 cats, two dogs, 3  cockatiels 
and a desert tortoise. We are all comfortably ensconced in the  makeshift 
"Bungalow Bar and Grill" - the back half was travel trailer, and onto  it was 
built the front of a mountain cabin. Kitchen is camper-type galley, and  heat 
is 
woodstove. Interesting ambiance. My dining room is a bar, complete with  
spitoon. 
 
And it's next door to the local nudist colony (no fences, except on the  
road), which is reachable by golf cart over a series of sparsely-vegetated 
sand  
dunes. There is much backing and forthing now that the warm weather has  
arrived.
 
There is a large wooden sign in 'my' courtyard, where AA meetings used to  be 
held - now that there are no meetings, the joke is that AA stands for  
'Alternative Attire". No kidding. Or "Anarchist Animist"
 
My point being - since it appears I have drifted off the thread - that none  
of these people are in the least conflicted. They are all  cat-and-dog-  
people, regardless of gender, and they're all Green Libertarians, to say the  
least 
(heh heh). 
 
Who needs TV?
