Hey Colby,

I too, feed all the strays around here. I miss my cats so much. They were like my family. I have had them all my life. They provided me with so much joy and comfort. They were so playful and happy cats. Unfortunately, I got very sick, and had to file for SSDI disability. I am somewhere where we are not allowed cats. Not one day goes by, I don’t think about them. I don’t have family and few friends as I live in a small town with no transportation, except medical transportation. So, it’s very isolating and lonely without them. Volunteering gives me Hope, though and feeding about 15 of them.

Hi Colby,

You had mentioned liking animals, and your car. Have you thought about volunteering with animals at a Zoo or Animal shelter? Sometimes I volunteer for an organization that rescues animals from abusive and negectful environments, and then there are times I just volunteer to play and hold the cats at our local SPCA, no kill animal shelter.

The hardest part of recovery is the traumatic experience. Hope you’ve been able to overcome someday.
