I went to talk to neighbor Saturday and picked up his cat name Bill...Bill loves to be held but this time he wanted out of my arms and i got clawed in my right arm a few places it drew spots of blood....
Then neighbor told me that Bill was grieving over the death of his brother...and didn't want anyone touching him!
Then he told me this story and well
ok...i'm having a rough time grieving over Bill's brother that had got mauled,bitten,etc by a coyote but made it back to the shed.
Neighbor said he was gone but had left shed door raised enough for Bill and his brother to go in/out....when neighbor came home Bill led him into the shed where his brother was dying and then died!
Bill is not hiself right now.
So yes cats do grieve.

Yes, they do.
We left Chicago for Arizona when I was ten. We took our Siamese, our black cat and our raccoon with us.
Once we got to Arizona we acquired more pets. One cat was my mother's favorite. The Liz Taylor of the cat world. She was "Becky."
On my mother's birthday, Becky was found in the snow, in the driveway, dead. A neighbor had pulled into our driveway and he ran over her.
We buried her. And every time we checked her grave, we would see cat paw prints in the snow.
We discovered they belonged to the quiet black cat we'd brought from Chicago. Soon after Becky's death, our black cat left home. Every now and then we'd catch a glimpse of him in the neighborhood. And then he disappeared.
We'd never realized he was so fond of our Becky.
Sorry to hear about Bill's brother. Godspeed. 
Maybe I should skip the Cabernet with my lunch salad.
I was enjoying my wine and checking my email. Got a message from APNA (American Psychiatric Nurses Association) with information about their annual conference.
Normally, this is where I hit "delete."
I do attend the occasional New Mexico conference, but I've never traveled to the "big" one.
Well, this "big" one is in October. I usually take time off in October.
Where is it, you ask?
Nawlins!
Of course I've never been there but, after a glass of wine and a hearty salad, the idea didn't seem so preposterous.
Casually mentioned it to BH and he was all over the idea, researching the hotel choices. He practically has my bags packed.
Not so fast, Mister. I need to think about this.

@just bee NOLA sounds awesome. You both need a getaway. A break. I'd go for a high end hotel....just because!
Have never been, but husband has for work meetings/seminars. The farthest I go south now is Wrightsville Beach NC to see family.
Another cool day here. We had to get away from jack-hammering (our sidewalk!) and went for a bike ride. About 4 miles. Later in the afternoon I took a 3 mile walk at my own pace.
The crowds hit on Friday. Driving to see my dad would've been easier by bike or on foot for that matter. I did a load of whites and colors for him yesterday. Took another plant for inside his apartment. And prunes, don't ask...lol.

He has not yet expressed any interest in going. I assume he wants me to go solo.
He had a work trip decades ago and I came along because it was Boston. I had to see Boston.
Love Boston.
