Comforting Cats

Today She needed a lot of comforting. It is because of what happened with the little dog. On the way to Rocky'sMom's house, She saw a little dog. It was just a little bigger than me, She told me, and the dog looked as if it were lost. It was not a good time to pick up this little dog, because She had some plans to do, first. When I come back, She thought to Herself, I will get this dog into the car, and put it in our backyard. Then I can make some signs that that say I found a little dog. If the dog is in the backyard, it won't bother us, She explained, because we tend to get anxious when there is a dog inside. As She and Rocky'sMom went about their business, She kept thinking about the little dog.  On the way home She saw something in the street. She could not believe Her eyes. It was the little dog, and it had been hit by a car. You can't believe how sad it made Her.  She said it was as if it was Her dog. AND Her fault for leaving the little dog behind when She first saw it.  A good way to get the hurt out is to tell someone about it, so She told some of Her good friends - which includes Kasey, Kate and me. There is this thing She used to hear every Sunday. It was A joy shared is a joy doubled and a sorrow shared is a joy cut in half.  I really want Her to feel better, so I will get up on Her lap and tell Her there there in purrs. Bye for now.
