It is in the great Music Hall tradition or whatever the German equivalent is.

Let's see what I've got in the magic trash can for Mateo! blog website -
One of my classmates has a hearing dog, a Border Collie named Gandalf. She sits in the front row in lectures, and Gandalf would sit at her feet or, if he got bored, kinda wander off and see if anyone would pet him. One lecture we had a guest speaker who, for some reason, decided she'd give out chocolates to anyone who answered her questions correctly. At this stage she wasn't well liked already, as some artists seem to make a point to be rather condescending to students, but then she tried to feed chocolates to the friendly little border collie, insisting it was fine.
Since then she's been known as "That lady who tried to kill Gandalf."
The grapes and raisins thing is new to me though, I'll remember that one.

Our cats loved watermelon, canteloupe and peas. One of them would sit up and beg for peas at the table. She could smell them.

PE My Technika (the cat, not the camera—I have one of each) will try anything. She loves licking cardboard and scotch tape, for that matter. But I've never tried to bleach her. -
Our cats were fixed!

Yes, when they are fixed it can prevent surplus kittens. Very important !
