I'm reasonably sure you're not the only psych case around here :-) [I
tend toward depression myself].


Me too. I wonder if that has anything to do with our attraction to
kitties? Something along the lines of self-preservation...

When our first little poodle died, we were going through a rough patch as a
family. After several months Charlie pretty much dragged me into looking at
puppies. We fell in love with a beautiful little dark apricot girl that we
finally named Brandi Alexandra. Only because as Charlie said if we actually
named her Therapy we would be forever explaining.

None of our cats have been particularly cuddly. Two ferals and three meezer
boys over 35 years. Until last year we got our Siamese girl Rosie. She is
my love, my sweetheart, and my almost constant companion.

There is nothing like unconditional love and a warm body that is there when
you need it. And purrs and kisses don't hurt either.

Our new little girl was supposed to have been spayed Wednesday, but they
found she's allergic to the anaesthetic. So she will be going to a
different clinic where they use a different one, and have her operation
Tuesday. She's okay, God be praised. Her foster mama will be there to
monitor her during the spaying, and I hope to the highest heavens that
all goes well for our Brandy. We should still be able to take her just
before Labor Day. I want my baby!


Thank goodness they found the allergy before the surgery. Purrs for
the surgery to go well at the new clinic - and for her to finally be
able to come home to you instead of the foster mom - though it sounds
like her foster mom is a good one

Brandy's mama-to-be is just out of the hospital, where I had to spend a
bit of time for observation. I had an interaction with recently
prescribed medication and they had to call the ambulance to my work.
Took forever to get out of there.

When I called Louie to pick me up, he held the phone out for the cats. I
said I loved my Stosh and Roxie, and they were rubbing up on the
receiver. Damn, I do love those kids. God's been good.


Purrs for you and your med interaction as well.

puurs that they get the dosage fixed. As far as you're being pyscho, I
wouldn't worry... you seem to fit in well here ;-))

That's absolutely true!

Cleopatra isn't much of a snuggler generally, but has let us know that
at bedtime her place is on top of Nancy's pillows.

Tabitha was quite the cuddle-baby when she was a tiny kitten (up until
about 6 months old), but she now really dislikes cuddling. She loves
sharing food with us, though, sitting on laps and get rather demanding
when we don't feed her from our meals quickly enough.

Amelia continues to be a snuggle machine, prefering to do so from the
top of my shoulders. She *still* greets me at the front door from the
top of the bookcase, insisting that I stop on my through the door to let
her climb onto my shoulders.

Little Sammy continues to be my best snuggler. Wherever I might be in
the house or the yard, Sammy won't be too far away. And any time I sit
down or lie down, I can count on Sammy joining me within a few minutes.

I just can't imagine how empty life would be if I didn't have my furbuddies.
