I think that one thing a pet owner/lover knows, that those without pets, don't is that unconditional love that they give. Pets don't even realize how much they do for us, spiritually and emotionally and some of us physically. When you feel down, they seem to know and want to make you feel better, either by snuggling up to you or by trying to make you laugh. Somehow they just know. I wish that more humans had the compassion and empathy that animals have. I wish more humans had the capacity of love that animals have, and that those same humans would share it with others. I think the human race could really take some pointers how from animals.
Now, I also have one cat that is real tempermental. She has CATITUDE! The kind of cat that you buy three different cat foods for and she would be like "I would rather have the kind you didn't buy".. even if she did like the other three! She is Ms Kitty Fu ~ Queen of the House. GlidaBelle is just a mellow cat, who goes with the flow. She is the "Whatever" cat.. whatever makes everyone happy. Then there is Ffiona who is the youngster of the group. I think though that she might try and swipe the title of Queen. We will have to see...
UPDATE: Two more kitties at the corral! I have a Hazel Mae or as we call her Crazy Hazey and when have Lux. I am trying to get another baby.. but hubby isn't really wanting it and I need to take his feelings into consideration. He is such a wonderful hubby, he deserves consideration.
These different characteristic are what make my life so filled with smiles. Pain, sadness, whatever it is.. those little characters make me smile. I am thankful every day for those little meows and growls and sniper attacks.
