a knock on my door and then Prairie's voice: Kath? Can I come in? Or did you want to be alone?
Come on in, Prairie.
Prairie comes in, shuts the door and sits on the chair opposite my bed, How are you doing?
I'm OK.
Prairie: The truth?
The truth.
Prairie: If it helps any, I
do know how you feel. When my cat Stripes had to be put to sleep, I felt horrible. You remember how I was,right?
nodding Heartbroken. But I'm sure Spencer and Stripes are playing together in Kitty Heaven .
Prairie squeezes my hand Yep. .And you still have Bailey and Trouble at your regular house. You have Gaffer here. Plus Fatatita stops by every so often .
As if on cue Gaffer runs in , jumps on my bed, starts purring and headbonking me.
Hi Gaffie
scratching under her chin Yes I remember I have you, you silly kitty cat.
She runs off my bed, and returns with her pink kitty sock Prrtt? dropping it in my lap .
Want me to throw it?
going to throw it but she looks at me like she wants me to keep it Awww!! Thank you baby! ...giving Gaffer a kiss on her furry head! Very sweet of you!
Prairie: You know that she'll want it back in a couple of days, right?
Yep...Indian giver cat!
and Prairie and I chuckle
