I remember reading somewhere that “we are the most exciting thing to happen in our pets’ lives”. It’s why I never get annoyed if my dog gets excited to see me.

She’s pretty old now so no more jumping but every now and then lick or nip at my hands for a pat and it’s not because she’s being naughty, she’s just so excited to see me and wants some attention.

    I still get annoyed at my cat because he’s always excited to see me, even if i never left. So I get no time to myself.

    “You want to watch tv? Pick me up and pet me. No, I’m not jumping up onto the couch with you, you must fetch me. I will not stop screaming.”

    I love him but goddamn is he a lot sometimes.

    Now that the weather is cooling off, we’ve turned off the air conditioning and started opening windows, and it breaks his little brain that there are holes in his house. He is very upset about this.

    my cat is the same. completely velcro. i can’t eat or get on my computer or use the bathroom without him trying to jump in my lap. i just think about how one day he won’t be here and ill miss him so much, even if he sometimes gets annoying now.
