I HAVE HEARD from the cat people, and the cat people are not happy.Apparently, the cat people are up in arms over a recent column in which I (quite sensibly, I thought) listed the virtues of dogs over cats.I forget exactly what was said in that column, but it was something about the country going to hell in a handbasket now that more people are choosing cats as pets.I also might have taken a few shots at cats for having zero personality, all the warmth of an eggplant and a predisposition to stalk schoolchildren, claw drapes and scratch furniture.

There are plenty of ways to divide people: haves vs. have-nots, Democrats vs. Republicans, night owls vs. larks, rap vs. rock, fried vs. broiled. The list goes on, but there are also a few things almost everyone can agree on, and one is Grand Champion Blackrock Jungle Juice RN. He's known to his people by the simpler name Mufasa and he's the Bernese mountain dog that won the Best of Breed honors at the 138th annual Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show in New York City. Most dog people, and probably a lot of cat people, too, have at least a vague understanding that the Westminster Dog Show is the World Series, Super Bowl and Triple Crown of canine accomplishment.
