I feel ya, Tater.

I met my DG and it was all love at first sight... until realizing she was severely allergic to kitties. ...at the time, I had two furbabies... Jack, a big, handsome black kitty, and Tsukiko (Little Moon) a (then) petite tortie. My ex-DH took them in to live with his gf's fluffball (they all get along fairly well) but man, oh, man do I miss my furbebbinses.

DG is into geebies, hammies and now ratkins... after a lifetime of hunting rodenty things, I have a hard time getting attached sometimes (esp. when Gebo decides to cop an attitude and repeatedly molest his brother at 3am resulting in incessant squeaking ) but... ratkin kisses and preenings are still heartmelting

...but someone's gonna get fixed yet.
