Some of the people at work participate in Secret Santa. On of the gals came around Thursday with the new kitten she had gotten from her Secret Santa. It was adorable sleeping in its basket, breathing slowly, so you knew it was deeply asleep.
Then, she said, "It's supposed to breathe faster, but it only has one battery in it." Hu?, yep, there are now stuffed animals that look fairly real, even "breathing" but they don't need the care of a live animal. Another person got a Golden Retriever puppy.
I know just the person for one of those. Karen lives in an apartment so can't have a live dog (but loves dogs). She also used to have a Rottweiler. So, although it will be here a little late for Christmas, Karen will be getting a New Year's Eve present of a brand new, breathing, Rottweiler puppy.
I'm probably more excited about getting it for her than she will be to get it (although I'm betting, not by much).
