Shíl an cat go raibh an chuileog sa chiseán, agus is rí-dhócha go raibh an ceart aici!

Maidir leis na cait... you know Pangur Bán, of course. On the Old Irish list we've just been looking at the personal notes left by scribe of the Leabhar Breac (ca. 1410) in the margins of that MS. In one series he writes about his companion (boyfriend?) Domhnall, their kitten, and the robin, including a stanza on raising a kitten up to a cat and then having it rove away. As a cat owner, a Gaeilgeoir, a buachaill bán, and a book wrangler, you might want have a look.
