What an adorable story. Thinking of the 'cat' as the representation of the feminine, it's nice to read that House would indeed adopt a female entity into his life, let alone, let her lie, clothed only in a towel, on his beloved piano. :rolleyes:

House/Cuddy snark factor: very good.

Please keep writing!

The female/feline parallel was, of course, intentional. But I hadn't thought about the fact that the feline was on his piano, "clothed only in a towel" -- hee!

Anyone guess why the cat is named Ira?

ira = "wrath"?

Um.... Big fuzzy, cigar smoking, grumpy, sex-crazed charater from comic series 'Moonshadow' that guides his young charge into manhood?!

If you know what I'm babbling about we must talk!!! :P I haven't found a kindred spirit there yet :(

um, I know who Ira the "Moonshadow" character is too...

I've loved your story since i saw it posted in over at the "angry site' I hope you bring Ira back in a future story. ;)

Cheers! PPD

WooHoo :P Aud you've made my day :D

I have never met anyone else who has even heard of it! I gave up years ago but occasionaly I'll stick an oar in the water and see what I bump into.

Too Cool!! Thanks :D

I loved your story. I never really thought of House as a cat person, but you did very nicely in easing into the feeling. I didn't really pick up on the Feline/Feminine thing until I read some reviews, but then I was all "Oh yeah, duh."

Anyway, great fic! Really loved it!

TPel, it's been about a year since I've read this and I have to say it stands the test of time.

I still adore the last scene and still chuckled at the note and Cuddy's annoyance. I'm hoping you haven't given up on us or writing and that we'll see some new material soon!

Thanks for a great read!
