Bob,
That's worse than running over your own cat with the car.My neighbor did
that when I was a kid, and I thought it was the worse-saddest thing I ever
heard of. This beats it by a mile.

Really friendly thing.

so I decided to roll them out in front of the barn to show them off to
local passers by. This accomplished, it caught the attention of local
newspaper so got picture of me and my dog a border collie in the local
newspaper.

found one flat kitty. Stiff as a board and you probably could play frisby
with it as it had dried out somewhat.

you don't get a good view of what is immediately on the other side of the
pumpkin and they also create some noise rolling over strms and leaves that
muffled any last crys from flat kitty.
