Just lonely and old finding solace in this harsh world.

Cats think humans are useful domestic animals.

Grandpa Comes to Shelter to Brush [...]

I tried that once, at our local Women's Shelter.

Didn't turn out too well.

Regards,

This is probably the best sleep this man gets. When my father would come to visit, he’d often fall asleep in our recliner. He said he could sleep so well with the sounds of family around. Boy, oh boy, do I miss him.

Some of the best naps I’ve ever had were when my kids were little and they were climbing on me! I do miss those days.

My FIL hated cats all his life, then retired and got a cat.

Go figure.

Everything is right about that man — making helpless abandoned creatures of God feel safe and loved. Maybe he is a lonely creature of God, too. A win-win for both sides. Plus, his blood pressure is probably good. DH and I have low, healthy, BP; doc says the cats are calming. Maybe ... I don’t know.

Cats don’t mind, he doesn’t mind. Shelter doesn’t mind. Cool.

Being alone is a hell of a thing. It seems this old timer likes doing something good. He loves the cats,the cats love him,he is a star on Facebook and the donations are pouring into the shelter. Whats not to like?

I probably wouldn’t do that in a shelter with a bunch of pit bulls. They would probably eat me.
