Thank you all for your support. I'm glad I'm not alone in understanding the sensitivity of kitties. Which brings me to a horrible subject, My husband is jealous of my dead and dying cats!!! Help! Has anyone else experienced this? This might be a subject for another message board, but do I need a divorce? He actually picked a fight w/ me THE DAY I put my Mimi down , saying I don't pay enough attention to HIM! Could he be more insensitive? Who the heck did I marry? And now that it looks like Minute might be getting ready to join Mimi -he's picking a fight again. Is there anyone else who has had this experience or is my husband the biggest jerk/baby in the world? Thanks and sorry for my angry words.

Spouse Jealous of Cats! Help !
if this thread has a place on this board, i'm not sure where 
, but i had a hard time not replying (hope i dont regret 
)
Angela.....seriously, this really is not a cat/animal issue. having an open and understanding discussion will provide you with the why, everyone else in the world can only make guesses and right now you need answers.
good luck and dont use the d-word.
, but i had a hard time not replying (hope i dont regret )can't help to think this behavior is replicated in other situations. personally, i would make a guess that it has nothing to do with the cats itself. probably need to search deeper.Angela wrote:He actually picked a fight w/ me THE DAY I put my Mimi down , saying I don't pay enough attention to HIM!

My sympathies over losing your babies. All of us have experienced this and it is devastating. I'm sure I'm safe in saying that everyone who reads your post will understand your pain and support you.without further facts....cant tell Angela.....seriously, this really is not a cat/animal issue. having an open and understanding discussion will provide you with the why, everyone else in the world can only make guesses and right now you need answers.

I second Jason's response. Angela, it seems so much deeper, and you and hubby have to get to an understanding about this. You should be able to share your grief, and if he is not willing with you, there are other ways to deal, heal, and mend. Consider a close family member of friend who understands your pain and share your grief through them.
Your hubby may even be unable to voice his own grief, and may be lashing out at you instead. Find out if that's the case. Sit down and talk. Calmly, rationally.
