2) Why? because we all love animals. always have. that's what matters most to us.
3)"Old cat". she's 15 and in our lap right now. She started her life as a barn kitty. She's not friendly to anyone outside of family. She's very stubborn and can be bad tempered but also very smart. She's maybe getting close to the end of her life, but we are doing our best to take care of her.
And the Wonder Pup. He's just over a year and a big dog. He's sweet and goofy and very smart. He's a rescue dog and we don't know for sure what he is, but maybe lab, rottweiler and newfoundland. He also has a serious case of epilepsy. We didn't know taht when we adopted him, it developed later. It was big scary for us. It still is in a way, but we love him and our doing our best. Hopefully in time we will find a good combination of meds for him.
Pets that are no longer with us our soft cat, fat cat and old dog. (We don't use real name on internet. sorry) We loved old dog very very much and still miss him. We love our cats but the dogs our super special to us
4)They belong to all of us and it's the one thing we can all agree on. Without the pets we'd probably be dead. We've stayed alive to take care of them. After old dog died, Little Girl had a super hard time. That's when we finally came to understand we were many. We couldn't ignore her or tune her out.
5) I don't know. Don't think any of the cats care or know. Old Dog new something. When we still self-injured he was pretty good at stopping us. Wonder Pup knows something too. It might just be that he knows sometimes we play more, sometimes cuddle and sometimes need to be alone.
