Readjustment of reactions

[xiphias]

One of the hardest parts about Boopsie's death is that so many of my reactions and habits are based around that cat.

"Oh, I shouldn't put this here or Boopsie will . . .no, she won't."

"If I do this, the cat could . . . no, she couldn't."

I'm cleaning up the floor where she messed when she lost bowel control, and using bleach. And I keep thinking how I really better keep that door closed so the cat doesn't have to deal with the bleach. . .

Grandma Rose used to see her cat for years and for years she was always careful opening the door so he would not escape into the hall. Whitey was an escape artist extraodinaire.
