I agree to a certain extent, but in my case, I miss them because I no longer live where they do. I grew up in Georgia, but moved out to Washington state and then just across the border to BC and they’re not native here.
I agree! It’s easy to offend someone without intent, but out of ignorance. Just because you didn’t intend to offend someone doesn’t mean they weren’t hurt by what you said. If one unintentionally offends, it’s easy to say, “I’m sorry, I didn’t realize…Help me understand so I don’t make the mistake again.”
Closing the door with my first kitty resulted in loud, and I do mean LOUD, wailing, accompanied by two front paws reaching under the door. In the end, leaving the door open and being stared at was less stressful.
It’s true. I’m definitely my cat’s preferred piece of furniture.
