I'm glad to hear that everyone is doing well.

My husband is visiting family for the week so all I have is the cat to talk to. Talking to the cat is not the same as talking to another person.

For example, I can say to the cat, "Please get off the table." or "Please stop meowing. It's too early in the morning for this."

But it's pointless to ask the cat, "What's the weather going to be like today?" or "What should I eat for lunch today?" or "What do you want to do today?"

My husband used to have a pet parrot. But it got really stressed out when he went away to bootcamp. So he found it a new home with other parrot folk.
