Time To Move On?

[G535]

It's a little over two months since Finnigan died and I have just this week started looking at the local shelter cats but only on the web site. I have always had a cat around but they all found me, I'm not really used to the idea of going out and finding a cat.

It's been almost 4 months since Nakita passed and I can't imagine getting another cat anytime soon. I'm fortunate that we're currently renovating the house which will delay getting a cat since I don't think (for me) getting a cat now would be the right choice.

But I totally understand the silence. I miss everything 'cat'. The house feels like a shell without a feline in the house. I almost wanted to run right out and get a cat so the house wouldn't feel so empty and silent. But, that would have been a mistake for me.

I think you need to deal with your emotions so that if a new cat enters your life, there will be no guilt or resentment towards the new feline. Listen to your heart, it will tell you if you are ready to accept a new one into your life.

Good luck with both your heart and your journey on finding the right companion.
