Re: cats
So I read Neil Gaiman's blog.
This week there have been several posts about one of his cats, Zoe, who has an esophageal tumor that was recently discovered. She is quite rapidly dying, and on Monday the vet will come to put her to sleep.
His entry made me cry. The blog entry of Zoe's other person Olga also made me cry.
As much as Jackers knocks things from shelves and sleeps on my head, if he were not here I would be SO MUCH MORE LONELY.
I have been snuggling him rather aggressively over the last couple of days. He, like the secret lovey he is, has turned into a pliable mushpile of a cat and let me do it.
It amazes me every time how hearing about someone else's loss makes you cling to what you've got.
Everybody go hug your pet.
