Fraidy Cats

It turns out everyone is afraid of something. It doesn't matter if you are a cat or a human, there is something that makes you jump. Or hide. Or run away.  She likes to remind me that I am scared of  loud noise and new people. I don't care if She kind of laughs about that, because I know She is afraid of falling down. If you are scared of something, it seems a little better to know there are others who are scared, too.  I didn't think Kasey was scared of anything, but I am beginning to imagine that she is scared of Kate. After all this time, Kasey still hides from Kate. And Kate is kind of scared of Him.  Lots of humans are afraid of bugs, but I think bugs are enormous fun. There aren't too many bugs that come in our house, but if one does, I have a living toy.  I have been here a long time, and I am not sure what He is afraid of. He doesn't like some things, but He is not exactly afraid of them. He seems to be more afraid of idea things, like not being able to take care of us if He has no money. Being afraid can take over your life, you know. She is so afraid that She will fall that She hardly goes out anywhere. If it weren't for lunches with Her friends, and Her beloved Crones, She would just stay here in the house.I guess when you have fallen down a lot of times, and if you are quite old, a fall might just be dangerous. Because She has had so many falls, I know that about Her, but I don't remember what happened to me to make me so afraid of so many things.  She wishes She knew the answer to that. She thinks that maybe someone was not nice to me. She would make them sorry, if She found out that was true. It is no good to say Don't be afraid, but there is so much nice stuff to do that you can't let it spoil things. My advice to you is don't be sad if you are afraid of something. Everyone is. G'nite.
