[QUOTE="AnnieO, post: 380541, member: 6705"] Thorin - the cat I fed grape juice from my bottle when I was a toddler. He drank it, snuggled and I'm guessing he didn't know he was a cat, either. When I was 9, he was hit by a car on Good Friday and I swore he would be back on Sunday. Tortor taught me that you can put up with some pretty weird stuff if you love someone. Tick Tock - my first cat that was MINE. She had very short teeth, so she didn't chew her food very well, and as a result we had a lot of mess to clean up. But - I trimmed her fur and her whiskers as a kid... She was 16 when she passed. And she taught me that sometimes you have to clean up icky messes, but it's worth it. Rainbow - the Samoyed I got when I was 9 - thought she was a kitty (ha, ha). Afraid of fireworks and thunderstorms - she got caught in the cat door the last July we were in Texas. And I learned that no matter how scared you are, sometimes you have to be calm to calm down others. Gator, Cinders and Tut (Mom & Dad's kitties)... Have taught me that there's always someone smaller than you that needs to be cared for. Weasel - that 6 AM awakenings for breakfast are a PITA, but they're made up for by snuggles and a purring lullaby at night. Possum - that things are not always what they seem, and to keep a close eye on anything even slightly out of the ordinary. Squirrel - That there is such a thing as too much fur on an animal, but when you get rid of it you expose the baby animal underneath. Bubbles - that IQ doesn't matter. Love does. [/QUOTE]
