“Dear Cocoa,
I spent the better
part of my growing up outside. I learned
how to fight for what I needed and I learned how to hunt for food. I figured out how to find shelter when it
rained and snowed, and I figured out how to get humans to feed me now and
then. However, one human took me in when
I was too sick to fight. They brought me
to a man with a white coat who poked and stabbed me repeatedly and then stuffed
something down my throat. I was furious,
but I was too sick to fight back. After that
visit, I feel much better; BUT the humans won’t let me go back
out! What do I do? I mean it is warm with plenty of food and no
fighting, but--outside--no rules--no barriers--and no men poking you. You’re free to run, chase, fight, or just lay
around. Please help!
Signed Pining for the
Outside”
Dear Pining for the
Outside,

| Brrrrrrrrr |
Are you
crazy???!!!?? Every feline worth
anything knows that living inside with pets to take care of you is the best
life you can get. Why would you want to
go back out there where you might get sick again or someone bigger than you
takes your food, or, whatever might happen.
Stay inside and wallow in the pampering.
If the opportunity arises, you could scoot out for a bit of a romp, but
don’t go too far and be ready to get picked up rather quickly and taken
back. Your pets are the best thing that
ever happened to you, enjoy it.
Signed Cocoa”
