cat remedy

i have had the flu for 5 days now and the best
cure is my cat-

soup, water, aspirin, cough syrup and having your
cat jump into your lap every once in a while.

my cat is my-
-hot water bottle
-a little distraction from my hacking lungs
-friend when no one want to be around a
sick person
-a blood pressure reducer
-a little jester when you don't feel like
laughing
-and someone to listen to me gripe and complain
about being sick.

now if only i could teach him to clean out his box and feed
himself--he'd be perfect.

Cats sure do have a whole lot of jobs. I hope you feel better SOON!

My hubby can attest to the nursing instincts of cats . . . when he was going through chemotherapy and bedridden, Lily (elderly gray) layed on the bed by his side loyally. She was his ever present comforting nurse and so I nicknamed her "nurse-shark", since she is gray like some sharks, and usually has an attitude like sharks, to boot! :)

Aww how adorable. I'm glad to read that your cat comforted you while you were sick. The flu is the worst. I hope you are feeling better.

Hope you are feeling better Richard. Yes, I've experienced that special cat therapy too. It can be so soothing and rewarding.

(did I mention, when I get home tonight I get to try to glue back together a ceramic umbrella stand that I made in high school almost 30 years ago? None of the little stinkers are confessing so I don't know who the guilty party is.:eek: )
