Kitties Woe

[crankyoldman]

Alright, feel free to call me oversensitive and emotional, cause I can be.

But my kitties have fleas, and one of them is really starting to show his age (they're 20, btw) and he sort of hobbles and just stays in one corner (but thankfully eats a lot still) and today it made me cry. A big chest wracking sort of cry.

I just want them to feel alright and fleas are terribly hard to get rid of and Salt keeps sleeping in the sink because they must bite less or something then and I feel bad because I want to huggle him but I can't due to the bugs.

I think I need leftover Chinese food and teen movies and/or X-2. I'm sorry, I just had to share that. Mostly because I'm alone in the house this week so you guys get to share my little emotional wibbles.

I know there are much more serious things going on in people's lives, so I feel kind of bad crying over my cats.

You cry when you have to cry. God knows I do enough "my situation isn't bad enough!" for all of us. =P

Thank you. I just don't like being upset.

Upside is that after another treatment they're acting a little spunkier, and Salt is knocking down things again. XD

*hugs* There's nothing wrong with crying when you feel the need.

don't feel bad for worrying over/posting about your cats. *hugs* I'm sorry they aren't doing so well. I hope they improve soon.

Your kitties are your companions. You've had them since you were a wee one. It's natural to be upset. And like Jack said. You need to cry, then cry.
