		<title>The Disadvantage of Having a Friendly Cat</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I have a very friendly cat named Sam.Â  He&#8217;s 10.5 lbs and orange-striped.Â  Most people expect cats to ignore them or to sit quietly on them while they read or watch television or converse.Â  My cat is rather different.
