"Just saying..."

I have always raised my cats with dogs.  I get tolerant dogs and cats who sit for cookies.  My 18 year old cat still sits and shakes for cookies.  He was raised with a 95 lb. red wolf.  They were "besties."  All I'm saying is don't ever discount the persons who show up in your life.  I personally feel we call who we need.  Make a ripple, howl at the moon, see what happens.
