I agree with Jacques, the first is a *must*, the second is optional (a
nice reading).

No! My cat is a person, I'm telling you! Now, everybody, this is "Catherine Kitty". No, I don't
have a cat, just kidding.
We used to say that our rifles should be our wives (the army taught us). Join the army, they say.
Hard to avoid having our object model messed up. Then our bayonets would be our girlfriends, and
our swiss knives mistresses.
Anybody has any opinions of the data model books recommended on
http://ofbiz.apache.org/documents.html ?
The Data Model Resource Book, Vol. 1: A Library of Universal Data Models for
All Enterprises
The Data Model Resource Book, Vol. 2: A Library of Data Models for Specific
Industries

Eg, the Party concept is flexible and great, so I
can even make my cat a "person". So is the
Product concept, allowing for multi-level BOMs

Now that's just silly ;) To correctly model the
inclusion of your cat, you would need ...
1) Create a partyTypeId of ANIMAL
2) Depending on your specificity of data collection
make another PartyTypeId of CAT
3) Make the partyTypeId ANIMAL a parent to CAT
4) review the majority of things dealing with parties
to consider if they should be dealing with instances
of cats or animals
otherwise you are simply misrepresenting your data
:o)
