happy Oscar the Cat story

Those of you who know us well know that we are animal lovers, and that our family includes three cats, three dogs, three fire bellied toads and two red crabs (recent additions).  I found this link to the video in the comments section of the NPR story and had to share it.  It's just a great, happy story.  Worth noting - this has never been done before, and could lead to major advances in human prosthetics.  I can't wait to see how well he moves once he gets used to his new feet!

Pook and Bean are talking about the kids at after school care a year ago. Bean said, "probably the only people I remember are the boys!"
