1. That's a wonderful picture.

I wish I had a pool like that one. I keep hearing that excercising in the water is the best physical therapy for me. But getting a membership someplace with a pool in Manhattan is prohibitively expensive, and finding time to get there and back is nearly impossible.

I'm jealous. Okay? I want to be able to go into my back yard and go swimming. :P

I wonder if I could either of my cats into that AquaLounge. :rofl:

2. Hey ThomCat!

:hi: Thanks for viewing my pic. I AM lucky to have this pool and I don't swim in it as much as I should. My doggies love it, they *swim* every day! It took a while for my dogs to get in their *boat*. Now they jump in even when I am not outside to watch them. I am not sure your cats would do the same. Cats don't like water, do they?

3. Cats usually hate water.

But my cats have been known to sit on the edge of my tub and watch me shower or bathe. And occasionally they entertain me by falling in. :P

If I was in a pool they'd be insanely curious. I'm sure at least one of them would end up in the water.

4. Well that is how my dogs first got in the pool, insanely curious! Now it is old hat

to them. Our pets are entertaining, aren't they? :rofl:

5. Paula Poundstone had a great bit about that idea...

Something to the effect...
"My cats look at me when I step out of the shower COMPLETELY fascinated.

"Oh my god IT WAS ALL OVER YOU! THAT'S AMAZING!"
