I am so grateful that you and the other cat lovers here who have lost their pets were so understanding. I never liked cats and thought that Cat People were nuts......that is right until I got Punkin. The next day my DH came strolling in with Trouble riding in on his shoulder, where he kept perching until Buddy gave up and said "Okay, come on, we're going home." I feel so badly for you who have experienced the loss of beloved pets but slefishly, I am feeling better that I am not alone with those feelings. Mixed emotions at best, I'm afraid. I am also worried becasue the two I have left are the same age, within a year and they were barn cats as well, their start not so good. We lost Buster this Spring so I am just dreading the next shoe that drops
Thank you all once again for your thoughts and know that I also grieve with you when you share your losses with me.
