After my knee operation, she was constantly running for hennadonnics (toys, flowers, etc.) to lay on my knee. She's especially gentle with headaches. Back'-a-do-nee: A place that's unreachable, as in "the kitty's in the backadony" (e.g., behind a chair). I think of it in somewhat more philosophical terms....
