Paying Respects To Our Senior Citizens With A Series Of 21 Senior Cat Stories And Photos
Greetings, ICanHasers! Wherever you are and whatever you're doing, we hope you're having an amazing day, doing amazing things all while feeling amazing. Yes, we realize that sounds completely insane. We don't mean to put pressure on you guys to be doing grand things, quite the opposite actually. We hope you recognize your amazingness in the little things you do because they count too!
Today we thought we'd pay respect to our elders. And by that, we of course mean our senior cats! If you've ever had the pleasure of caring for and loving a senior pet, you know that it's a constant state of bittersweetness. On the one hand, you hate watching your baby grow up and age. Especially, if they start to develop symptoms of aging. But on the other, you become so much closer. You both cherish and appreciate each and every moment; every kiss, every snuggle, every meow, and every purr.
