I handed it to Mike and said "here, you play with this for a while'. Right at 10 minutes later he was holding a 10lb cat, black in color, and saying how glad he was that was over. His hand hurt from putting all the pressure on the 4lb rig it would stand. Pics and a release he's there to play again. Now he's disappointed when we don't get one.
