The carpet is fab (I grew up with Persian carpets, too -- hope to inherit them at some point!) . . . and Angus looks SO much happier and healthier, YAY!
I figure that since my mother has about six of them (really nice ones that she and my Dad got in Europe), I might as well wait until I have a sizable enough place for them -- my teeny townhouse doesn't really provide an ideal venue for laying them out.
One of these days, I'm moving . . . just hope the housing market recovers a bit soon!
The rug is absolutely gorgeous, but holy shit, Angus!
He looks WONDERFUL! He's coming along so nicely, it's obvious that you and Frances spoil the hell out of him. As befits one of his High Station, of course.
Our little starvation victim--and it turns out that her former owners starved her because they ran out of money to feed her, how horrific is that?--has finally started eating normally and is up to a normal-ish weight, while the one who was madly obsessed with guarding and gobbling her food is finally calming down. Rescue kitties...*shakes head*

And the rug is cool too.
