I’m getting lonely these days. I’d REALLY love to get a puppy or a kitten to keep me company. Since Butch moved away to Wendover for work, I feel very alone in my basement and wish my upstairs neighbors weren’t allergic to cat hair. It seems these days almost everyone has a new puppy to show off or get to brag about.
I do have Olly – my Winter White Dwarf Hamster – but he’s so little and hides all day. He’s nocturnal so he comes out at night while I’m asleep and the room is dark. I hear his little wheel spinning all night long and his water bottle sometimes.
I need an animal to cuddle with and pet. Even if it were a neighbor kitty that came around a lot, I’d love to “adopt” one. Anyway, I’ve never owned or raised any dogs so it would be a first for me to have one but I think I’m ready for the opportunity.
I guess mostly, I miss my childhood beautiful cat, Princess. She passed away years ago from a dog chasing her and she couldn’t jump the fence soon enough to get away from his bite. Princess knew when I was feeling sad and would come around and sit next to me just to be near. She didn’t mind if I didn’t pet her while I was crying, she just knew I needed company. She was like my best friend. And I miss the babies she brought into this world as well.

Aww that’s so sad about Princess. I don’t think you ever told me how she died, just that she did die. I can’t stand dogs that want to chase, and especially kill cats!
I’m sorry marc, I didn’t mean to make you more puppy-sick for one! If only your neighbors weren’t allergic, I’d give you one of my sisters kittens that her cat is going to have.
I hope you get a cat or dog sometime soon so you aren’t lonely anymore!

Aw thanks AubreyMo! Yes, Princess had lived a full life and was probably old enough to pass. It was a year after I moved to Utah for college that she died. We could have pressed charges against the dog for running around the front yard without a leash but we didn’t.
I wish I could have an outside cat or something but then I’d be so sad if it ran away or anything.

Usually if you spay/neuter them they’ll stick around. The biggest thing to worry about is it getting run over. If you don’t live on too busy of a street, it might be a possibility for you.
