He’s had a rough couple of weeks. I have been gone more than normal lately and his separation anxiety has been bad. Most cats aren’t quite so clingy toward their humans but Scout seems to think my job is to always be available to him. The simple act of going to the mailbox leaves him terrified and usually results in him following me closely for a few hours.
We forget that, while they are a part of our lives, we often are the entire world for our pets.
<3 Poor kitty.
Snezhana(my cat) said that Scout shouldn’t worry too much! He’s a lucky boy to have someone that cares so much about him! …
Aww, Scout would like to tell Snezhana thanks for the kind words. It’s a scary world for little creatures but it’s nice to have friends
I’ll be sure to pass his thanks along! Yes, friends can be so important! …
So very true. Many pets probably got used to having their people with them a lot during the worst of the pandemic. My earlier pets didn’t see me much during daytime hours. Sterling seems to think I’m too clingy!
Scout never liked being left alone and then got spoiled when I came home to work in 2020. Some weeks find me here a lot and others have me on the go. Those busy weeks are hard for the poor guy. He’s curled up with my feet right now!
Oh how that tore at my heart! And so true. We are often their entire world.
It makes me sad to think of it.
