As I told you in my first blog, my second pet was a cat. At first I was worried how the dog would receive this change. I was sure about the peaceful character of a golden retriever. What I did not foresee was the fighting character of a 2-month-old male. From the first moment, the cat attacked the dog and destroyed the things in front of him. The second step was when he got into the dog’s food bowl with his first two paws and was eating. Chuk looked at him nervously but could not react in my presence.
The presentation did not look good to me. I was worried about how I would leave them alone all night in my cafe bar. That night I slept a little and couldn’t wait for 6 am to open the cafe and see… I didn’t know what was waiting for me! I found the dog that was waiting for me and the cat that was hiding under the furniture. The dog had established his authority overnight. It took a few days for the two of them to become inseparable. They slept together, ate together, played together. They went well together, maybe because they had the same color, light brown. The problem also started with the two birds I had. The cat always tried to eat them, no matter how high I put their cage.Fortunately, the cat was well educated for personal needs, it was very clean.
After some time, I tried to get another cat (3 cats to be exact, one after the other). With all the cats I got, it was the same presentation with the male (Chap). He had his way of fighting violently at first and later becoming the sweetest cat in the world. It was like a reality show. The alliances between the 3 pets changed daily. Sometimes two cats were close friends, the next day one cat bonded closely with the dog and ignored the other cat. Everything was becoming more and more interesting.
They were the best medicine for stress and boredom. I want to emphasize that working 16 hours a day in a cafe that has few customers and makes no profit, becomes very stressful with each passing day. But, I had my pets. They gave me the strength to continue, to come willingly to work, the time I spent with them was very relaxing. Moreover, I was surprised how many people loved pets. They came with their children to pet the dog and cat, they brought them to eat, we became like a small community that loved pets.
After a few months I was forced to close my business, I had to find a new home for the dog. Fortunately for me, my childhood friend, Eddie, has a yard with all possible pets and birds (hundreds). So, I continue to see my dog every day, walk him, feed him, vaccinate him and he is happy with the variety of animals and birds around him. For all that I have written, I have many photos and videos of my pets, which I will post in the future on my accounts on Facebook, Instagram, TikTok.
Thank you for your attention!
