BTW Sarah, I visited "Jungle-Hut" as you recommended and loved that video. Having flown planes as much as I have, I really appreciated the skill involved for that landing. Thanks for sending me over there.
Purpure--word concocted by the Pur company to describe their water.
Purine--Dog food company for the micro pups.
Purpure - the noise that emits from a genuinely happy cat
Purine - a more pure form of urine (bad, bad, I know - sorry!)
PurPure: I agree with Linda almost, that is the sound of a virgin cat. Purrr.....Pure!
