Again I just want to say Thank You. This post has been so helpful. Most groups
ignore new post or you might get one opinion. Everyone here has been so
helpful. I have always loved cats and will go on loving them. When I was a
child my mother suffered from schizophrenia - often times I felt very "alone."
My cats were my best friends. We lived isolated in the country and mom and dad
never put out food for the cats (although I used to snitch bread and milk for
them). Back then they were expected to catch mice and fend for themselves. I
found that even without them getting food on a regular basis they still stayed
and still showed love! That type of companionship and friendship can never be
replaced.
