I am sometimes a cold person.
And I have my share of problems.
However, if there is one thing I cannont stand and that is having a problem I cannot solve.
Today at 8:30, we found a stray cat wandering around my house. Now we have our own indoor cat. We have had him for 4 years and I love him dearly. The cat that has been drifitng around we have not spent a second thought. We assumed it was an outdoor cat, just wandering around. However tonight we looked at it and noticed it was really really skinny. We beleive that is has been left behind by it's owner. When we went to feed it, just a little bit of cat food, becasue we didn't want it hanging about, it devoured it in seconds. The poor cat was starved. We got it some more food, and despite my love and loyalty to my cat, I couldn't help go outside and see it.
It was so small, eating away like it had never seen food before. Then it dawned on me.
This cat is alone.
No food, no friends, no family. No one to hold it, care about it, cradle it in their arms. He is alone, unloved. These facts weight heavy on my shoulders. Although I already know that there is little I can do, I can't help it. Somethings have the ability to touch my heart.
I can feel it taking over me. The confusion the chaos, as I write it consumes me. How can I create a paradice if I cannot even save the soul and heart of one helpless cat. Imagine it. You've lived in a house with your family, for your whole life. Then one day you blink and you are on your own. In a world you don't know how to handle. Without the skills you'd need. No chance to turn back. You have NOTHING.....
Then I look in the reflection of the computer screen, and it hits me. It would appear that Cat and I share some similarities. For soon I shall be gone to University, out into the world which I know so little about. Is it the cat I feel sorrow for? Or my self?
The good news is we wil be taking the cat to the pound, where they might beable to use a microchip to identify him, and perhaps return him to his home. If not, I pray to God, that he find that poor animal a home, with a family who loves him.
For that is all I wish for........
