Introduction	Catholic Girl: In need of better organizational skills and more hours in the day! :). The furball in front of me is my cat, Simba (although he goes by many other names too). He was a surprise from my Dad and one of the few physical things I have left of him. Kitty, is the gift that just keeps on giving. He's my joy! He's also a miracle cat. He was an emaciated stray when Dad picked him up and tossed him into his truck, later telling us, 'If I hadn't picked up that cat and taken him home, I would never have heard the end of it!' Ah, but he loved that cat. Simba was suppose to stay outdoors, well that lasted all of a day. :) Now, he thinks he rules the roost! He also, by the grace of God, survived being 'crushed' by a loading dumpster and did I mention he can walk on water?! I thought I was seeing things, until I found a video online of a cat doing the exact same thing! WOW.

Unlike a dog, how can a turtle ever be naked?

Sadly, turtles can outgrow their shell (something which is fatal-- UNLIKE shearing a dog).
