I'm exactly the same I think! Prefer pets to humans and I talk to mine as well as sing to them. I don't think they mind my terrible singing..lol. I even wave to the outside cats when I see them walk by the window. I like to think they are saying "hi" back when they look up at me. All of my pet companions have been special to me but two that stand out the most are "Woody" my guinea pig that died many many years ago. I easily cried three days over that little pig and still do occasionally and the second would be "Friendly" my cat who passed recently and I swore I didn't want another pet but then "Casper" came along. Of course "Tiger Roland" and "Munchies" (both cats and both passed) are still very dear to my heart. Right up there with "Friendly"! Lots more and I could go on but will stop here.
Glad you found a solution to Cleo wanting to nap on that "tuner-thingy"! I would've worried also but it was a great idea that remedied the situation.
I'm sorry for your loss of Merlin! I like to think that we will see our much loved pet companions when we, eventually, make it to the other side. 💖
Munchies! What a great name! 😁
They become like family right? I get the waving thing too...I wave to Cleo as I leave for work, through the window or sliding door. I often think Bout them during my day and wonder what they do. (Sleep).
I was so lucky to have the work from home thing last year as I got to spend so much time with Merlin and of course after he left. I know how you feel. Missing him now can still make tears form. I tend to hold them quite well, you know, man and all, but sometimes not.
Cleo is loving her tuner-thingy sleeping-platform as warm air from the unit adds some warmth to the wood still. A win win situation.
I wish we didn't have to lose pets ever again, but we will. We will go on...But it will hurt also. We will accept that for the joy of having them though right?
She was the sweetest cat too! 💖
Well, I'm glad I'm not the only one that waves to my pets..lol.
There is nothing wrong with shedding tears for our loved ones and that is what they are really.
Totally agree and it never gets any easier but it is worth it for us and them as well. 💕
