It was hard being a part from Lucy kitty. She does not like the sound of coughing for some crazy reason. She’s not a snuggle when you’re sick. I think she worried about me from a distance though. She would come on the couch or in the bed Briefly for pats she does her best. She’s the first cat that wasn’t a feline healer. I can’t blame her after all I didn’t think my coughing on it too. Great either. Thanks for your best wishes and your kind words or barks. Love you all too and I’m glad you’re a team woof woof!

I support the military also as I have a cousin who is serving currently and so is his wife I don’t think they’ve been deployed recently. I also have a college friend who after desert Storm Came to college and that’s where I met her. She drove truck there. Anyhow, that’s really cool what you’re doing.
