So, as a distraction from snow and drips, and for a change of pace, I’ll tell you about our grandpets. We now have both Dog Scuppers and Cat Izzy with us. Just before the parents arrived last evening, in other words while we were still cat sitting and thus responsible, it seems that Izzy decided that her litter box had a little too much litter in it. So she marked her spot on the comforter in the room where our grandchildren would be sleeping. Unfortunately for me, responsibility includes clean-up.
I love both of these grandpets, but I don’t want any of my own. I know that pets can offer comfort but there is no way that they could add to the simplicity I am striving for.
