re: #120 klys

…why did I make the idiotic mistake of reading someone’s account of having to let their kitty go? Even just like 3 paragraphs of it and now I’m tearing up already.

Both my current cats are “boomerangs” who were adopted and returned to the shelter. With the one that is sort of not surprising given she is a bit neurotic and has a few behaviors that will throw people off*. Why someone would return L.C. is odd, he’s very laid back. Perhaps someone wanting a lap cat, and he’s not one of those yet.

And neither of these cats understand “human territory space”. The table in the dining room is simply higher ground to them.

* - Puffin is a social lick-biter. Licks you as part of the social interaction and then decides to follow it up by biting (hard, but doesn’t break skin). Plus a few other behaviors regarding wanting to be watched eating; e.g. she comes and meows at me, leads me over to the food dish, and then eats. Regular bundle of nerves this cat.
