Be well Aelin...

[Hipshot]

That is the way of it dear Aelin.  The Big Boss works in mysterious ways.  We lost Miko a few years ago.  Connie found an advert to give pups away.  At first, I said not no, but HELL NO.  Next day, right out of the blue, I asked if she wanted to check out said pup.  No clue as to why, just did.  Went over there and talked to the owners.  The little guys were in the house and one of them was brave enough to take a peek down the hallway.  Connie looked over at him and he come charging down the hallway like a runaway freight train.  Jumped up in her lap and began washing her face.  When the other crtitters got to her and him, he was warning them all off with a series of growls that had them all, including me, taking a step back.  That was Kibitz, the untrained medical dog.

And Cleve, hate to tell you this buddy, but that seems to be something that the firstborn make child gets saddled with since time immemorial.  So, you are NOT alone in such things.

I think you are right about that, but it sure doesn't make things easy to handle. Watching my siblings go through illnesses and other health issues that I myself am not suffering from is hard to do. I do have some health issues, but none as bad as what my siblings have. As for Tammie, I am praying for her and hoping for the best that can be.

Good morning guys.

Hipshot, at the beginning of 2008 I was looking for a new cat to adopt, to the local shelter. Didn't want to take a grey cat because several around in the family and at friends' homes were very bad mood cats.
When the adoptable cat house was opened, the first on a shelf I saw was that grey face, interested by what happened, but didn't move, just continued to look. The cat I maybe would take was already waiting his new owners came. Another was a granny cat, and it was too early for I pass through a lose again (didn't know our tiny dog would leave 4 months later). Most of the other cats in the background of the house didn't want to be adopted and no one caught my eyes.
Back inside the cat house, Puce was still looking what happened. And she is now near me while I'm writting. She is like a cat-dog in her behavior. Maybe because she was abandonned twice in her first year of life. But the fact is she is absolutely not like the otehr grey cats I knew, she is a sweet one. Even if she has tendency with her eyes to show she would prefer to be the exclusive cat to the house; that seems to be a common way for all grey cats I know or knew.

I think animals feel better than us if they have to come with us or not. Except the ones trying to charm every human

Cleve, it does seem like we are both on the same page.  Being the oldest of the family does have its drawbacks.  And I know exactly what you mean.

Aelin, it is most hard to turn away from the little ones.  I TRIED to turn down Princess when we first got her, but Connie knew my weak point.  I was just beginning to tell her I just did not want another dog when she brought this gorgeous little Chichuahua out brought her out.  Needless to say, I melted right on the spot.  One look into those eyes and the Fat Lady was done and on her way completely off stage.
