Making pleasures last.

When I came home from Italy this summer, I brought gifts. Including Italian cat food for my cats Loverboy and Chenuska. But Loverboy wouldn't eat the stuff. Guess he wants only American cat food. Nothing exotic. Nothing different. That surprised me a little bit. But Chenuska -- well, she gobbled everything. She likes food, period. And eats much faster than Loverboy. Guess she wants to make sure she gets her share of the food. But she has nothing to worry about. Because Loverboy nibbles. Savors his food, I think. By making it last. Yes, he really is a loverboy. Enjoys living in slow motion. Making the pleasures of life last for a long, long time. --Jim Broede
