Format:

Woohoo I was hoping you were bringing it back. Thanks UC.
Can I include some cat pics too? I'm a cat owner. I put my cat Hopscotch up in the Saddledome cardboard cutout section.

I have a soft spot for calicos and tortoise shells. They are both very neat. (⁠^⁠.⁠_⁠.⁠^⁠)⁠ﾉฅ⁠^⁠•⁠ﻌ⁠•⁠^⁠ฅ/⁠ᐠ⁠｡⁠ꞈ⁠｡⁠ᐟ⁠\
