I enjoyed the story, DC, though felt really bad for the cat. He must have been frantic to get back to familiar surroundings.  My cats are iffy, in that sometimes they like to cuddle but most times, they like to do their own thing. They are nosy, so are underfoot whenever I want to get something done.

Every night, they will lay around in the living room, but as soon as I turn off the lights and go to bed, they are right there. Both cuddle then, and Lizzie likes to nuzzle and purr, while kneading my neck. She puts her face up to it, and I can't stand it. I have to allow her to do it, or she will pester me all night to get her nuzzling time. I learn something new about them every day.

~LOL~ one of my dogs always comes in and turns around and insists I scratch her back ........... no nuzzling...

Who would want to open a pet shop when the need for adoptive homes is so great?

I have 4 wonderful, adopted dogs.  Sad to say my 10 year-old Daisy, a rat terrier mix, is on the decline with congestive heart failure.  She was my parents dog previously.  It will be so painful to see her go.  Sadie, a husky/shepard mix, is almost 13 and on the decline as well.  Darn.

Think I posted this up-thread, but not sure. It bears repeating.

There is a reason people live for 70 years and dogs only about 15. People need to learn to love. Dogs are born knowing how to do that.

I have two of those. They get between the shower curtains. When I do shut the doors, I can see their paws underneath, trying to get my attention.

Niall is a male outdoor cat, though he hasn't been out much this winter. The other day, Lizzie slipped out when someone left. I didn't know it, and when I went to open the patio doors, there she was, about half way on the screen, meowing in her tiny voice. Her claws were stuck in the screen for I don't know how long. She never meows, but makes some kind of low noise that I can barely hear. She hasn't tried to slip out since then.

My dog used to be real bad when we first got him. Now he comes in every so often I found out if I try to get him to balance  a roll of TP on his head he leaves me alone! I also found out he is almost able to do it!

Those dogs sure like to slide. They know how to have fun, and don't have to wear a dozen layers of clothes. :silly:

So sorry for you loss.  It is surprising how our critters affect our lives.

So sorry to hear that, 240. I know the love we have for our pets. Just living in these times is painful. Keep in mind, we are all in this together.
