Re: pets
When you've had animals all your life, like I have, it's a big decision not to have another. I won't have another dog because I can't go through the heartbreak of losing one again after the last time. I wasn't having another cat but Maddy adopted us 4 years ago, turning up in our garden fit and well and, apparently, abandoned.
Animals are hard work, sometimes expensive and they tie you down but the love and companionship they bring you compensates for all that. To see our cat settle down next to my granddaughter is a joy and an example of pure affection. Some people say cats are aloof, not nice, sneaky and all the rest of the biased crap but you should see the 2 of them together. That cat loves Laura to bits. She's quite nice to me, too.
If you've never kept a pet I can see why you'd be wary - but you've missed out on a lot.
