How Much Do I Love Thee? Maybe Too Much...
Love me too much? Nah!
Okay, I admit it. I'm a woman who loves cats too much...although I really don't think that's a possibility. Can you have too much money? Too much love? Too many flats in the South of France?
Love us too much? Impossible!!!!
If you're reading this, there's a chance you're just like me. We're brethren caught in the web of addiction. People talk about us...
"She's putty in their paws," they snicker. "He's a pushover for anything with whiskers," they sneer. And it's all true. Nothing's too good for our puddies-not spa manicures, fancy collars, new couches, voice lessons.
Love me too much? Never!!!!
Worse still, we neglect our loved ones. I, myself, spend so much time with the cats, there really isn't that much left for my husband. And when we do arrange a quiet moment-usually in the garage so my babies won't get jealous-I'm a nervous wreck. What if they think I've abandoned them?
Love me too much? Go on and try
Okay, so maybe I do go a bit overboard. We all do. But can we throw off the shackles of cat-co-dependency? Can we lead a normal life? Probably not. But we'll never know until we try. So starting today, I've vowed not to be a slave to my cats. But first, I'll just finish crocheting these gold-laced cat booties, then make their fresh shrimp puree with mashed salmon and warm cream. We can't rush these things, now can we?
