"we can't have anything nice!" sure you can--isn't that what the CATS are for? i have AUTHENTIC persian rugs, gleefully shed daily in copious quantities, and absolutely EVERYTHING goes with calico, and who can beat basic black, or tuxedo? with a little red-and-white tossed in for contrast?
someone reminded me that our cats add, "ambience"--which the decorating firms charge highly for! -- MaryChristine AIM / YAHOO: TenHouseCats MSN: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ICQ: 289856892
