Happy Friday Eve, y’all! I hope you are having a wonderful week and looking forward to the weekend. Do you have anything planned for the weekend? I know certain areas in the United States will see the total eclipse on Monday, which should be a wonderful experience. We had discussed driving to an area where the eclipse could be seen, but after careful consideration, it would be a nine-hour drive there and back, which seemed like too much driving for us, and we decided against going. I cannot say if we will regret this decision, but I will let you know. I had concerns about going that I never mentioned until we made the final decision because I did not want them to impact my husband’s thoughts. I know it might not make sense to others, but being in a large and open area with many people makes me nervous because of the violent issues that have occurred in the United States.
Do you find building a bond and strong connection with humans or animals easier? I can get along with just about anyone, especially if for a short time, but my preference will always be animals. Of course, I have a loving♥ connection with our cats and would do anything I can for them. I ensure they have food, fresh water, a clean litter box, and a safe and happy home to keep them comfortable and sheltered♥. I have found it easy to earn the trust of the cats I have been feeding outside, even the feral cats that have taken more time and patience. One of the cats, I believe, has an owner, but he is at our house several times a day and sleeps on the front porch, either in the comfortable box I put outside for him with a towel to lay on or on the porch in a place he finds comfortable. It almost seems he has either imprinted on me or adopted me as his Mommy😊!
It seems I have a crew of feral cats that come daily to eat because they remember where the food is😊! I noticed one of the female feral cats, I named Sherbert, had been gaining weight and seemed like she must be pregnant again. Well, she disappeared for a few days but reappeared yesterday, not pregnant anymore. The little girl must have given birth, so I am waiting for her to bring the babies over for food, which might not happen for a few more weeks♥. I know there would be many extra costs, but a part of me hopes we can keep one of them. After losing Sundance in February, we only have two cats, and there is a HUGE piece missing that will never be complete, but I would still enjoy having a kitten😊! We will see what happens and if I can convince my husband to take the kitten in! I think it is safe to say that I am the crazy cat lady in our neighborhood.
Thank you for visiting my site today. I hope you enjoyed this post and I look forward to reading your comments. I will respond to all comments as quickly as possible😊! I find it interesting to know how many people bond easily with animals or humans because we are all different and the reasons are fascinating. I hope you have a fantastic Friday Eve, and it goes by quickly for you! Please never forget I am always sending y’all LOTS of love♥, comfort, support, and MANY positive vibes!
Always, Alyssa
