A modest proposal
My parents' cat Calico has developed a neurotic habit of over-grooming, pulling out tufts of fur and leaving her skin raw and bleeding. The vet can recommend nothing simpler than giving her a daily Prozac, a task my parents wish to take on neither logisitically nor economically. Eric has a simpler situation: "Mawmaw, just get a new cat."
