Blessing of Cats Service

OK. So in retrospect not so smart.

But at the time we thought this might be the start of a better model of Pet service. Adopting an encounter with just one type of people - cat lovers - was more in line, we thought, with modern Church Growth Theory.

And I'm still, in retrospect, sure the principle was sound. It was just the execution that was flawed.

So we may do the Blessing of Cats again. But if we do, next time we won't sprinkle them with blessed water.

Who would have thought the cats would reacted like that to getting wet? Poor Ardwulf. Some of those scratches could take weeks to heal.
