That's exactly what I think we're going to do. Unless Shadow reacts to
the cat carrier the same way Queen Sheba does.

The thing is, we really want this to work because Shadow is really
cool. She's very affectionate and much more playful than Sheba. Dangle
a piece of string in front of Sheba and she looks at you like, "Yeah?
So?" LOL We figure Sheba is queen, Rascal is king, and Shadow can be
the court jester, LOL.
