I see so many of either me or the pet. When my late husband and I started dating, one of the first questions to me was if I liked cats. I love cats! Mine had died several years earlier, and living in an apartment the pet deposit and monthly pet fee became to high that was more than I could afford at the time. I was excited to meet his cat. She was not the very approachable but as time went on, we formed a bond. When she died, we adopted two ginger babies. We considered them our children. My husband later had a stroke, and eventually passed away. Our girls are my world. I love them so much.
