Raven,<br><br>I have kids, ages 11 and 3. You're right, they are dangerous, treacherous, spiteful, sneaky and just plain mean. But...they're mine and I love them, and they come by their traits honestly. Pet carriers don't work; they'll just gnaw their way out, or worse yet, put on this miserable innocent face and make you feel sorry for them. Then they kick you in the shins when they get out and run away laughing....God, I love the little buggers.<br><br>Andy
