Wow Alan, Paco is gorgeous! It was so funny when the cat got him in a head-lock.

What a great community you all are. Just so you know what Poco looks like I've added a link to a YouTube video (about 4 1/2 minutes long)I uploaded in late October of him and Tyler the cat playing. They do this every day, it's really fun to watch them wrestle. It may not be great quality video but enjoy it anyway!
