Whoo!
I wish I could go out to Seattle again to go visit my really good friend there. 
Not you, Terra. Though you are a good friend and I would want to hang out. :3

I'm sorry about your cat. I lost a pretty orange tabby to kidney failure out of the blue, so I know what that's like.

I don't know how comfortable you'd be lumped into a category of "I have a big crush on"

That's why you make them indoor cats.

Cats also tend to stay in the same area because they know where the shelter/food is. They're not that dumb.
Of course, when you end up taking in some strays, they HAVE to be outside cats...

Funny story on taking in strays.
Not long after my favorite cat Shady passed away due to feline leukemia, a seemingly stray kitty started coming around the house. We were never sure where she came from, but mom ended up taking it in anyway, and it's a very happy and friendly kitty. Her name is Catsy.
Don't ask on the name. I didn't name it.

I'd love to take in a stray, but our three dogs would probably chase it off the yard long before we could see it.

Cats sniff the dog, dog sniffs the cats.
That's how it works here. No trouble or concerns. They tolerate each other.

| That is also how it worked at my place. My dog loved our cats, and our cats would tolerate my dog. |

If I felt like I were a responsible pet owner, I'd get myself a hedgehog. I have a weakness for the little critters nowadays. :3

We've got a cat and a dog. The dog is scared of the cat, and the cat will barely tolerate the dog. Unless he does something to tick her off.

Passed away.
Thanks for being a part of us, even if it wasn't always on the best of terms.
