It has been one of those days..Started out catching a wild, gutteral, 500-pound black cat in a shelter trap this morning. We've been attacked with 3 times a night sexual cat-calls, fights, cans knocked over and the strongest pee ever peed under our back porch where I do laundry to a point I would have to spray Febreze to do a load of wash. One down and at least 3 to go. Got another one this evening that was smaller, cuter, deceivingly blue eyes and a streak of orange that makes you go "Ahhh" until it spits, growls and reminds you of the movie Pet Semetary. 2 to go.
Sadly, in 2 days my daughters 17 yr old cat (living with me for past10 yrs has to go now to her house as my allergies are thru the roof and her old age keeps making me cry. I hope she can adapt to a house with a dog and 2 perfect, well close to perfect grandkids. I will miss her but I also miss breathing and actually seeing out my eyes without swelling and tears.
I had to put down my 18 yr old Llasa Opso-Terrior mix 3 yrs ago due to severe injury. I still, look at me, cry easily just thinking of him. He was my companion, my friend, my toy, my soundboard and my guardian. I am afraid to ever try a dog again. But now, I am fearing the lonliness I will suffer when the cat is gone..she sort of got me thru losing my "Chewy". Ahh, economic crisis, stimulas package, politics be damned tonight! What am I to do?
Good night America!
