I want to cry just reading that. I had a number of cats as a kid that we 'rescued' (ie, they claimed us) that eventually ran away and I am afraid that traumatized me a bit with the giving away of pets. I am actually really paranoid with Maggie and Parker and their harnesses. I go mental if we are out and they have to have their harness off at all (ie to go into the travel cage in the car) because I am convinced something will happen and they will run and get hit or something. Then I want to crawl into a ball and rock just at the thought of it.
Yes, I am a strange person.
