An Open Letter to This Dang Cat

Dear Dillinger,

I realise you are named after an outlaw.  A dangerous outlaw, who didn't hesitate to hurt people.  However, you are not an outlaw.  And you are not allowed to hurt people whenever you want.  Yet you seem to think that's okay.  If you want to continue snuggling up next to me, in my lap, or anywhere near me, you need to put away the sharp objects.  Otherwise, I'll have to banish you. 

Thanks,
Amie

Very nice macro photo! And yes, Dillon, you know the old statement "Don't bite the hand that feeds you"? That could also be rephrased, "Don't claw the person who takes care of you." Watch it, bub!
