I have a cat that is mostly an indoor cat. We let him outside in the summer, but Rafe (the cat) is scared easily and doesn't stay outside too long. We have not let him outside since last September. For the past 4 months two other very large cats have been visiting our home late at night, throwing themselves atthe window where our cat likes to sit and watch the outside. Rafe becomes very agitated and screams very loud until we get the other cats to leave. My questions are...

1. How do these cats figure out there is a cat in our house? (One cat is new to the neighborhood and started coming to our house about a week after it moved in)

2. How do we get Rafe to stop screaming at these cats? (normally its at 1 or 2 a.m.)

3. How do we discourage these cats from stopping by? (The cats won't leave our window until you open the door and chase them away)

I was recently going through old photographs and came across 100's of photos with my ex-fiancé in them. We broke off the engagement over 5 years ago, and I have since married. The problem is that I was with my ex for over 6 years (through part of high school, all of college, and after college). He is virtually in every photo that I have (family gatherings, my prom, graduation, holidays, etc...) from that period of my life. Is it ok to keep these photos that mark significant points in my life? My husband doesn't seem to mind that he's in photos, and he has similar photos with him and exgirlfriends. I have thrown away all photos of just him.

Thanks in advance for your help!

I am getting new business cards made due to my last name changing. I also just graduated with my M.B.A. Is it appropriate to put "Jane Doe, M.B.A." on my business cards or is M.B.A. left off?

Thanks in advance for the help!

Our reception is being held at a private country club and this couple has offered to sponsor us since we are not members ourselves. The lady is also hosting a shower for me. Naturally they are being invited to the reception, but we wanted to get them a really nice gift to show how thankful we are. We would like to get them something really thoughtful, but we are having problems thinking up something. Our only ideas so far have been a gift certificate to a nice dinner, but we think that is a little impersonal. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
