Why You Are Thankful for Your Present Cats
they keep me on my toes. they have a specific meow that says pet me and we will both be happy. i have osteo-arthritis and a lot of the time it is hard for me to move around. they help me to keep moving because i scoop their boxes every day and getting up and down from the floor is a challenge.
Past Cats I am Thankful For
morgan-a black and white cat with raccoon face and orca markings on the rest of her body. she was very jittery, didn't tolerate being held. she bonded with my roommate first. when he had to be out of town for 6 weeks she had to turn to me for everything and she really changed then. she became very playful, loved to be combed and catnip.
Lessons Learned
- life is too short.
- playtime is a necessary part of life.
- interacting with them makes them interesting cats.
