the passing of a canadian official's beloved cat, named "thatcher," after his political heroine, nearly caused a crisis when people assumed the former british prime minister had died. we're sorry for mr. baird's loss and hope mr. soudas apologizes for his callous remarks.

abc's 20/20 is airing a special tonight on the "cat lady" documentary and the women featured therein. maybe this will blow away the "cat lady" stygma and get compassionate people some of the respect they deserve.
