Do cats get emotionally attached to their owners like dogs?
“Like dogs”? No. They get attached to their owners like cats. They’re fundamentally different creatures. But that doesn’t mean they’re not attached. Cats are socially connected to their environment. It’s why most of them do not enjoy going for long walks on a leash, being transported in the car. It’s why, when you change something in your house substantially, they freak the fuck out. They’re evolutionary adapted to be skittish because they’re typically alone in nature (well, their great-great-great-[bazillion greats]-grandcats were).They also haven’t been selected as specifically as dogs have for traits. Dogs have been selectively bred for thousands of years for a specific type of job: guarding, shepherding, ratting, protecting children, guarding Buddhist temples, confirming to the whole world that France really is gay. Cats, only recently, have undergone significant selective breeding and that’s mostly for shows —which I find appalling. But whatever. Cats had one job on the farm: stop trolls from cutting through the wall and killing children. Wait. I messed that up. Their job is to kill rodents that eat the grain.They retain that wildness because that wildness has been of service to humans. But they are mammals and they are exceptionally intelligent, potentially affectionate creatures (and manipulative little fuckers to boot). Cats have varied personalities. They do become attached to people. Rick and I travel a lot, when we get home, our dominant female —Leela— goes nuts (mostly for Rick, but whatever; she’s his cat). They are attached. Just don’t fuck with their environment.River is a murder-beast.Leela has potential, but she mostly just likes people.We endured River’s throw-back, 80’s bangle phase.Milo is just a lazy shit who wants to lounge around all day soaking up the sun on the Catio.River thinks she can kill brown bears.Leela isn’t having any of her shit.Though sometimes she tolerates her, as long as it’s on a pile of freshly laundered, warm towels.Milo gnaws on his kitty.River doesn’t mind lounging around on the Kitty Savannah.They all rather like climbing the kitty shelves on the walls.

Advice on what words of encouragement to tell a paralyzed stranger?
Don't try to give him words of encouragement, that is the last thing he wants to hear or needs....don't put on a sad puppy dog face that says "Oh, I am so sorry for you, you poor thing". He doesn't want or need that either. Just go there to visit him and tell him that "Your Friend" (his daughter) is a good friend and you just wanted to meet her father and say hello...and let him talk all he wants, don't keep saying "I understand, I know how you feel," Because believe me if you are not in his shoes, (You don't know or understand)... Let him talk, ask him if there is anything you can bring him, you know....a movie CD that he might like or a music CD he might want to hear.......... Don't stay for a long, long time the first time just maybe 15 minutes or so (unless you guys are really hitting it off) and when you leave if you plan to come and visit him again (which is the best thing you could do) ask him if there is any certain food or drink you can bring him that he hasn't had for a while, the next time you come...... (DON'T SAY "I FEEL SO SORRY FOR YOU AND YOUR SITUATION") and don't say (WE'LL PRAY FOR YOU) that is a given if you are a christian and he can see it in you. If you wouldn't tell a healthy person that you meet for the first time that you are a Christian, then don't tell him....treat him just like any other person you would meet for the first time. Don't even bring up his condition unless he does.....(he knows his condition, he doesn't want or need to be reminded of it). Be his friend, don't make him a poster child.......or your good deed of the month.
