On cats and life...
Oct. 9th, 2007 09:39 pmI won’t deny that a majority of my world revolves around two things:
The health of my marriage,
And the happiness of my cat Lola.
Now that we’re actually moving this week, the reality of change has me very worried about Lola and how she’ll handle it all. I know I’m stressing too much for my own good…but I can’t help feeling concern for her mental and physical health.
Whenever we’re gone overnight (or longer) upon our returning home she’ll cry, and more often then not throw up a little fluid.
Not only are we moving to a new house that still has the remnant smells of the previous animals (we’re working on getting rid of that), but there will be two new cats – older cats - wonderful female cats – that’s a bit of a double whammy don’t you think?
D and I have talked about how his cats (Flower and Silver) will be taking it hard too. Not only for the same reason, but because they’re both older (twelve years old to be exact). But they have each other, and Lola will be a bit of a minority in the situation. I’d be lying if I said that I’m not elated about expanding our kitty family though – D and I can’t stop talking about how wonderful it’s going to be to finally have them all under the same roof.
At any rate, I could use lots of encouragement on this matter. And if anyone out there has similar stories of introducing cats to each other I’d love to hear them.
