We had another stray a few years back that was REALLY covered with fleas, poor little guy. Took a bit of work to clear him up, plus he was nearly starved and too tiny to eat by himself. We found him trapped in a shed behind my work, ended up growing into a HUGE cat though.

My to read pile turned into a shelf and then into a cupboard. It's out of control. That's what happens with the trade a book thing at the shop, if I see one that looks at all interesting I grab it.
