While I still mourn the loss of my faithful companion and protector for the last 17 years, I am given new hope and joy by the addition of two new little bundles of energy that have wormed their way into my life.
After putting Midnight down, I came home to a very empty house and my anxiety levels shot through the roof. I couldn’t stand to be in the apartment alone. I called Dr. Dragonfly and she agreed to see me later that day. I went at least thirty minutes early bc I couldn’t stand being in the house.she calmed me down and like the ppl at the vet, pointed me toward PetsMart.
Once I got to PetSmart, the kittens picked me out. I went in the little room and there were two pretty yellow tabbies in the first cage, an adult long-haired something in the bottom cage and beside them were two little energetic and playful kittens that came right too me as soon as I got close enough to them. They we happy to play with me. While I was behind the glass talking about the adoption process with one of the associates, they kept trying to get to me. Astro, the male even knocked over his water bowl trying to get to me. They were so cute that I couldn’t possibly split them up.
They’ve restored the balance to the house and have negated the anxiety. They are absolutely precious. They’ll play with anything that moves or doesn’t. They’re both a handful, but I love them. They love to take naps on me. They will make fantastic companions, but they will never, ever replace Midnight. They’ll just be different.
