Getting used to the cat

Is there ever a point when you finally get used to your cat? I've had
Betty for over a year now, and I haven't gotten used to it.

You never do. I've lived with cats my whole life, and I still feel the way
you do. It's only when you are without them for one reason or another that
you realise how used you are to having them around.

I'll be taking the cats to the island on Midsummer, when I have a long
weekend off work. Then I will leave them there (in my mother's care) while I
come back for one more week of work before my holiday starts. This is what I
do each summer. That one week without the cats is the longest week of the
year. I see them out of the corner of my eyes, I hear them doing things
around the house, I feel them coming up on the bed at night, but there is no
one there.
