- Well, Here's a TV cat you may or may not remember. Remember the show
- _Remington Steele_? (Stephanie Zimbalist and Pierce Brosnan were private
- investigators). Well, the character Laura had an all black cat named
- Nero. The episode I was watching last night was the one where Laura's
- house gets blown up. She was supposed to be blown up with it, but when
- she opened the door to go in, Nero goes running out the door (obviously
- upset because some strangers were in his home setting a bomb), and Laura
- goes out looking for him, thereby not being in the house when it goes
- BOOM. Yet another story of a cat saving life and limb of its owner. :-)
- (I don't remember if Nero was in any other episodes. The show did not
- revolve around Laura's homelife.)
