For The Love Of Cats
I am a Prisoner of love48 total reviews
Comment from Mary Vigasin
Good for you. The most number I had at one any one time was five. We had outside ferals too, but I had them caught and fixed.
What I love most is that you think of the future and how your babies will be taken care of. They are so affectionate.
I am the same age and now have only two left. One is 21 years old and the "baby" is 11 and I do worry about if anything would happen so I will not add any more to the house.
I understand how you could feel being a prisoner, I think of that every time, we have to buy cat food. I still feed one or two ferals, plus my old one wants to eat often.
Best wishes,
Mary

Thank you for reading. My oldest cat is 20 and the youngest is 5. I hope I can outlive them. My niece will take care of them but I don't think she will baby them like I do. My dog is extremely attached to me and I don't think she would do well without me.

Your welcome. My youngest cat always wants to be next to
Me or in the same room.so I understand.

A creative take on the prompt which I enjoyed very much. You write in an engaging tongue in the cheek style that draws the reader into your story. As an animal lover I can relate. We are willing prisoners of our beloved animal companions.
Good luck in the voting booth!
Stay safe and blessed

Thank you. There are a lot of animal lovers on this site and I love hearing from them. You are right, we don't own animals, they own us.

You've told a delightful story in one-hundred words or less. It's amazing how our lives take twists and turns, and by the time you're seventy, you're living a life you never imagined, which isn't a bad thing. Just a different thing. I enjoyed this story, and wish you the best in the contest.

What a lovely person you are, I am a bit older but I had three cats which controlled the house and everything in it. I am now sadly down to just the one who still rules the house second to the wife that is. I really enjoyed your story but I am not sure if it is fiction or fact but it's good.

A lot of it is fiction. I could move to a smaller place if I chose to, and I don't have that many cats anymore. I just fabricated a bit so I can use it as fiction. Thank you for the kind review.

I suppose if you have to be a prisoner, there are much worse prisons you could be stuck with. :-) As a fellow animal lover, I really did enjoy this piece. Long may you be imprisoned. :-)

Yep, it could be worse. This is part fiction as I could move to a smaller home if I chose to, and I don't have that many cats now. I fabricated it so I could use it as fiction. Thank you for reading.

Thank you. To make this fiction I fabricated a bit as I don't have that many cats anymore and I could move to a smaller home if I chose. I still have enough that call me slave though.

Lol! Sounds like someone who loves cats!
Comment from Gloria ....
A most creative response to the prompt: The Prisoner. Pets can be quite a concern as one gets older, as to who will look after them should their slave perish first.
Wishing you great luck with the voters with this gem. :))

Thank you. Cats know they are the masters of the universe. This is a bit fiction because I could move if I chose to and I did love my husband.
