Couple of things, first search for the post I wrote about "Oscar the Cat From Rhode ISland", that will get you started. The dog story I did see and do believe that animals have senses about these things.

You must have heard me talk about my cat Mookie?? Big Momma's boy who always slept and followed me. On Saturday mornings when I am cleaning I have to put him down for naps (yes, that is what I said=Naps on my bed) so I can continue to clean the house.

Since my husband's illness he has been quite attached and at first he thought it was because they bonded with him being out of work. Not!! Each night this cat comes to the bedroom to make "dough" on the soft fleece blanket that my mother made for HIM!! LOL!! He only stays 10 minutes and meows on the way out. I think what he is saying Sweetie is: "I am taking the night shift Mommy!!" LOL

In all seriousness he is devoted to my husband and he has changed the great loving times for the morning with Mommy. It is in the morning that I get big head butts of love, I think it is because Ed is sleeping and this furry little guy knows Daddy does not need him at the moment. Do not get me wrong, Mook Man is stiill a Momma's boy.

Believe me Lily, this animal certainly knows Daddy is sick and he surely helps me. Mookie is the greatest support and boy do we know it!! Now go hug that dog of yours!! (smiling very big)>>Believe51
