One of our young outside tomcats broke his hind leg. We had it set but it got infection and ended up having to amputated. We had to bring him inside to heal and of course, he's still here. His name is Cooper and he's SO ornery and so much entertainment. It was a hard adjustment for him to come in when he was almost an adult. He still wants to go outside is VERY vocal about his wishes.Kat Bryanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01973785581415544509noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4119663416017334168.post-37228270506243361912011-06-18T12:09:32.014-05:002011-06-18T12:09:32.014-05:00Buddy was an amazing cat.

That's the sad thing about most pets, and perhaps a beautiful thing. You love them. Before you have turned around they have had a full life, loved and loving, and then they are gone. We still have a life to live for years beyond that. Grief may never completely fade, but only lessen. However I know your love of her will never fade. You will have her with you in your love and thoughts for the rest of your life.<br /><br />I know this sounds like sacrilege, but I've been through a lot of pets, so bear with me. The best thing to do is to get another pet. It doesn't have to be a cat, though it could be. That animal will never be Buddy, and perhaps you will resent your new pet at first, but you will love them. Don't let a death close your heart. As in Harold and Maud "That's good. Now go love some more."Bets Davieshttp://betsdavies.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4119663416017334168.post-51935572561380653142010-12-16T16:43:30.091-06:002010-12-16T16:43:30.091-06:00I meant to say 'she' was quite the cat.I meant to say 'she' was quite the cat.Karinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04569402238933872772noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4119663416017334168.post-45413532352347136812010-12-16T16:39:30.851-06:002010-12-16T16:39:30.851-06:00I enjoyed hearing about Buddy.

I've been turning down new reviews since I just can't seem to commit to them. Been busy doing other things.<br /><br />My husband has been laid off since June 17 and will be until at least Jan. 1. He's elegible to retire next summer so it's good practice for that although the pay (umemployment) sucks.
