Happy Friday Folks!
Whew rescue was brutal this week. The calls are endless and the people are mostly just mean. They often look down on you because you are a lowly cat rescuer and their problem is your job. Nor do they care if they are rude or sound inhumane to you. Your opinion as a “cat lady” doesn’t even rank in their book. They actually see you as something lower than a dog walker. That’s ok. Cat ladies like dogs too. And squirrels, birds, raccoons, deer, or anything else most people consider a nuisance. We have to share the planet with everything, or face the fact that our kids will have nothing. And if I didn’t know my worth as a human those hits would have felt harsher.
So these kids are on the mend and doing much better. I only had a handful still with me today at work. Little Steve sleeps a lot still, but he is playing some too, and eating everything. We will get him strong and back on track. Little Wanda is still whiney. She is like this delicate little flower that wants held and fed until she doesn’t. Then she takes off chasing a dust bunny. I hope they know that this cat lady would defend them at all costs, even though they are the Avengers kittens.
We all have a job to do as humans. As pets. Comfort one another and heal the pain. To get along with one another both human and fur bearer. To simply co-exist is not too much to ask. Yet here I stand asking for it. And maybe just be a little kinder to everything around you. I promise you won’t be sorry if you do.
