Finding My Inner Crazy Cat Lady
It’s been a sad time in my house during this pandemic. First, my 20-year-old cat, Akima, passed away in March and then two months later my mother, Millie Pete, departed as well. Not only have I had to process my own grief during these two events, I’ve also had to explain to my 5-year-old what it means to lose something or someone in such a way. The time came to add new life into my home in the form of adopting an animal, but that too proved to be less than wonderful.
