PeeS: The manatee skin does feel somewhat rubbery :) Unfortunately the scars are caused by boat propellers. Not everyone is as careful as they need to be. Thank goodness for those that are! :D

That was a very good year in review. Lots of bright hooman kiddos in your fam! Maybe your big brother will discover a cure for some dread disease, like polycystic kidney disease. That would be so wonderful, as we know alot of hoomans with that! Happy New Year to you!

PS-Did we tell you that our mommy had a tan Great Dane about 28 years ago. She was the best dog, but they had to give her away (when Mom & Dad got married 23years ago)beacause Daddy's Cocker Spaniel was scared to death of her. It was a sad day from what we are told, and lots of tears were shed. :>(
