The things we do for love!

At about 4 AM I heard some catfight noises from down in the yard through my open window. I was sure I heard Tiger‘s voice. He wasn’t on the porch and I put on my pants and went out and walked around calling him. Still didn’t see him went back upstairs open the back door and opened a can of fancy feast. The magic sound worked. He appeared a few minutes later and in good shape. So happy ending. Didn’t get back to sleep, of course.

When I got home. I got about 3 minutes, of catitude, and then, she's been on my side since.
VA hospital actually tried to talk me into staying, because of Milton.
I told them, " no way I'm leaving LilGlad, alone, in a storm"

Yeah, the things we do for love.

They work their way into our hearts and there’s nothing we can do about it

Willow gives me catitude a lot. Or in her case, tortitude, since she's a tortie (tortoiseshell).

7. Koz, I hope you and Lil Glad go to the pet-friendly shelter at Bronson Middle High School.

I saw that there's a mandatory evacuation order for Levy County's mobile homes, recreational vehicle parks, and low-lying and coastal areas.

Here's what I read about the shelter at Bronson Middle High School: Bring a crate, food, one gallon of water per animal, medications, Rabies vaccine certificate and proof of distemper parvo/feline distemper vaccine. Animal Services will provide vaccines for an additional $10.00 per vaccine.

I know how much you love Lil Glad and would never leave her alone. I think this would be even safer for both of you than riding it out together in your camper.
