Yes, it was very hard, but you have some experience in this area too. I was worried at first for my mother's cat, who seemed bereft, but she is slowly becoming our cat. She's on the bed beside me as I type.
Smokey is very well, thank you. As I type this she is on the living room window sill looking out at birds. I think she’d be a good hunter if she went out. That she is a house cat is a good thing for the local wildlife.
Yes, I have experience of caring for sick relatives, my mum was ill for a long time. I didn’t live with her, but I visited every three weeks for several years. It was hard going, and I have huge respect for anyone who can do it full time as you did.
Thank you for your kind words. I took one of my first steps tonight as Buns and I went out piano hunting. I believe I may have found "The One" in a Mason & Hamlin seven foot grand that may need some work, but it will sound great. We're going back on Sunday to hear it after it has been tuned and evaluated. The piano is used, just came in that day, and I liked the finish on it better than the high gloss black finishes on the brand new ones in the shop, which would be a nightmare to keep dusted. Not to mention our cats. I am so out of practice it's embarrassing.
Oh, I think that’s just wonderful! Music is so good for the soul... the muscle memory is still in you; no doubt it will come back more quickly than you think! I hope it brings you years of joy!
