Aww Bro i am so happy for you, i know how much it means to have my three girls to pat whenever i am feeling low,stressed or just needing to cuddle them, not that they love their cuddles that much, but they endure it, I tell them hey that is your job here you know, after all the good care i give you all, lol, willow sounds delightful.

I do hope you can get a group of you together and organise some regular contact with some kitties, i can tell it has done you the world of good,i can read the excitement here on your posts.
