Pets become so much a part of our lives, differently than other human beings do, and losing them can be so very tragic. we bring them into our lives knowing we will probably outlive them and that the pain of losing them will be overwhelming but would we choose to avoid it by not having them? I wouldn't because the fact we've shared our lives with them is something special.
I find it difficult to relate to people who say they don't like cats, pets in general, and would and could never be with a man who said so. I think you understand that, and what having these little creatures in our lives truly means.
Thank you for responding to my post, it's lovely to hear from you.
