   The cats get two meal and three snacks a day. Crunchy breakfast when I get up, morning soft snack (small amount of churu and wet food as they don’t love soft food) when the dog gets breakfast, evening soft snack when the dog gets dinner, later evening dental treats (don’t dare forget those, they swarm like sharks) followed by crunchy dinner.

   My crew gets crunchy breakfast around 6am, unless I’m having a night where sleep alludes me, then the get fed at 4:30am. This morning was a late breakfast morning and the dramatic one was doing his best OZ. The poor thing hadn’t been fed in 9 hours, he was clearly about to waste away.

   So true. Life after 30 was so much better.

   I completely understand the stress from moving. Hubby was career military, we moved cats from coast to coast and to Hawaii.

   It has definitely helped her. She’s survived college, gotten a job in her field (doesn’t love the firm, but doesn’t hate it either) and is in a stable relationship.

   I hug her as often as I can. It’s been almost 9 years and talking about it is still makes me choke up. She’s in a much better space now. She made it through college with really good grades, has a job that she doesn’t hate, and a boyfriend that we adore and is so good to her. In two years I’ve only seen him at a loss of how to help her and that was the day they moved into their first apartment together. Moving stresses her out, I gave her a big mom hug, then pulled him aside and told him to go give her a hug and tell her it will all be okay.

   It’s National Pet Day!! If you’re thinking of adding to your furry family it’s a good day to visit a shelter or rescue (really every day is a good day to visit) and let a fur baby choose you.

   My daughter has “If they catch you the will kill you. But first they must catch you” with some amazing art work tattooed on her calves. Under the first part is a rabbit skeleton in dead bushes done in blackwork. Under the second part is a rabbit in bushes in bloom with subtle pink tones in the flowers. She tries to tell me that she just like the quote, but given that her mental health struggles suicide ideation a year before she got the tattoo I’m pretty sure there’s more to it.

    Six cats is a lot. In my case it wasn’t exactly a choice as much as an effect of the pandemic. We were happily abiding with three cats (one of whom hated all the other animals – she had ISSUES) and two dogs when the before time ended. Collage student daughter moved home with her two cats – her male loved our recently adopted 1 yr old male, her female hated all the resident animals. A year later, son and his dog moved out. Then we (really I) emergency fostered a 1 yo male – nearly identical to the now 2 yo male (both black with small lockets). I really did try to get the foster adopted, but after 5 weeks hubby told him is was fitting in so well that I could adopt him if I wanted to, up to that point hubby had been firmly against adding another cat to the clowder. As the director of the rescue I volunteer for says, we foster won. Six cats was a bit chaotic, but we survived.
