Dad got the bag off, and Val wasn't hurt. {Smile}<br /><br />Valentine got his name partly because we got him on Valentine's Day. It also was Mom's father's name, and Val was his nickname, too. Dad and I suspect that's part of why she suddenly, with no real advance warning, annouced early on Valentine's Day that she wanted to go to the Humane Society and pick out a kitten that day. We'd been discussing it for weeks, with no indication of when we'd actually do it. Then all of a sudden she wanted to do it on that day. They had one kitten, a boy who was being bullied by the adult cats sharing his cage. Mom immediately wanted to get him to rescue him from those nasty bullies, and quickly suggested naming him Valentine and calling him Val. There, she mentioned Grandfather a lot. Since, she mainly mentions Valentine's Day... but Dad and I keep mentioning Grandfather. We figure he had to be involved. {SMILE}<br /><br />Anne Elizabeth Baldwin<br />Annehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05083766769757259822noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2207788461285073909.post-24120669462393759132012-09-10T12:12:10.859-10:002012-09-10T12:12:10.859-10:00Oh no, poor Valentine.
