Suzy ran away from home and came back...

17 years ago

After disappearing for weeks Suzy returns home hungry and looking for a nest box. Her fuzzy butt is not leaving the bathroom until I can get her fixed. Anyone interested in an indoor kitten? Already four cats living indoors so they probably can't live inside with me. I have lots of room outside but hope to socialize these.

I'd like to run away from home--and I live in Florida. Maybe the Bahamas would be warmer. I've had more layers of clothes on this year than any since I've lived down here. I'm ready for capris and tees. Oh--sandals, I can't wait for sandals!! I've been wearing socks and my ugly (but warm) slippers all winter, except when we go out, of course.

Definately stay the way you are... there is no telling how long mom will want to be involved before she decides to skip out again... and above beyond anything else sd will need the consistancy of you and dad behind her. Also, the way that we always word ourselves for behaviors that are allowed at moms house that are not allowed at ours is to say "I would hope that we raised you to behave in the manner that you know is right even if we are not present to tell you it is wrong. You know the difference and you should always make the right decisions even if no one is telling you you have to" And, I am sure that she is apprehensive about mom since she barely knows mom.. she is basking in the limelight of having "mom" back but at the same time knows that it could be very brief and she is basically a stanger. Just stay the course and "have her back" this will be an incredibly difficult time for her and ofcourse you and dad as well... just remember you love this little girl and dont change a single thing that you do... Mom may be mom biologically... but you are the real mom and she will need you. And, on a side note... if dad has full cutody of her... Dont just let mom do whatever however... make rules and guidelines and force her to stick to those guidelines... She is little more than a stranger.. And, you wouldnt let a stranger randomly take your daughter and do whatever.. I wouldnt let her do it either.

It's just terribly hard on a relationship when the couple are also business partners. From what you've described, it sounds like one of you needs to back out of the business and take a different job in order to have a chance of saving your marriage. As Popi suggested, a good Marriage and Family Therapist can help the two of you work out the specifics. If your husband won't go, you should still go. It's your best chance of helping to fix this mess.

Ha! I hope this doesn't happen to you either! We're getting prices for pavers now. If we can't afford the whole thing in pavers, we'll do concrete with some kind of nice looking border (stamped or pavers). I have a landscape designer doing the planning so that I don't mess it all up and it ends up looking haphazard. Gotta move some trees, beds, build a new front walk. It's all connected. This mistake has messed up the timing, but maybe it'll end up a good thing; forced me to start the project.

Oh how I love kitties. My cat family started from one stray undoctored mom who came into my garden with six little ones.

I learned my lesson after all six started having their babies!

6 x 6 = ????? LOL.

They're lovely Michael. Enjoy them while they're small and then.....(no lectures from me either.)

LOL, LindaC, be charitable. Poor thing, probably fell in love then was left as a single mother to raise her children. Lucky for her Michael is so goodhearted as to take in her poor fatherless children. (grin)

Sorry, Michael, I still have the Dead Cat from Hell. She'd eat another cat. They're sure cute, though.

No need to lecture... I failed to get her fixed. About the time I should have been attending to that I went off on the whole hallucinations, nightmares, heart problems, and such. A litter of kittens is the least of my problems. At worst I'll have 10 cats. A friend recently graduated from vet school so I have someone willing to fix the whole litter and Suzy.

Well... I can almost hear the splat-splat-splat sound of chit hitting the fan that I call my job. We are sinking and if she goes under the kits and I will be out on the street together. Ususal situation of the light at the end of the tunnel turning out to be an on coming train.

Least I got kitties to sooth the pain.. and forum friends!

Oh that one kitty looks a lot like my old Sheena. She was a dark calico. Oh golly it's tempting. Glad (this time) you're not in the neighborhood. I am a sucker for baby cats, dogs and humans.

Good luck with the job, M&L. If you're like me, you hate it but you need it. Probably best if Lyra waits at home on work days?? Best to you and enjoy the kitten antics.

Oh wow, no lectures from me Michael. Nothing more cute than a litter of kittens. I'm sorry that you have to worry about your job. Hope things improve for you.
