Well with the kids moved out and our beloved Buster passed our house is eriely quiet. Anyone who’s been to our house knows it’s NEVER quiet. With 3 LOUD kids for the past 20 years, the house has always been amped, even when just a couple of us are there. Jean and I found ourselves empty nesters and amazingly we have a quiet peaceful house….. to quiet.
With Jean having a dog her entire life, she really wanted another. After my extensive pros and cons list and our desire to camp/travel without worrying about the maintenance of a dog, she came to the side of reason. HOWEVER, I had to compromise. What does that compromise look like. See photo below. With neither of us owning a cat and never being attached to one, it was a bit of a leap to get a cat. However we’ve found being able to leave for a few days at a time without any worries of Izzy’s upkeep, has proven to be a great compromise. We’re enjoying this 9-month old rescue and so far, she’s a great cat! Welcome Izzy!
