when I see stories like this, I really think they have an impact. Now if we could just get the Chinese to stop eating them, that would be something. Dogs, too. Hooray for these guys, though!

not to approach unfamiliar animals, and respect their space, their need for security.

So sweet of the officials to be responsive to a tremendous public which appreciated their kitteh friends at the museum.

They have become landmarks, by now, after all!
