Story For Merit Badge Magic Theme 1 Pets
Pets. I love all animals. My husband and I had a water turtle but he was hard to take care of. He smelled. We gave him moss and all he would eat is tuna and canned chicken. I cleaned his aquarium. I washed his shell and he would attack the wash rag. We released him to the lake near by and I am sure he is happier.
My husband and I got a cat Tigger. She was a striped Tabby Cat. She loved me but not people. She liked my husband when it was stormy and when he was home in the daytime when he wasn't working. I think she didn't like the smell of his factory uniform after he came home from work.
I would take her to the Vet. I would put her in a card board box. It got hard trying to grab her and put her in a box to go to the Vet. I told my husband I wanted a pet carrier. He said how hard can it be to take a cat to the Vet? He was off the next time for her Vet visit. He went to pick her up. She hissed and scratched him and then she peed on him. He got her in the box and changed his shirt. We took her to the Vet. She was calmer. I got my pet carrier the next day.
My husband came home from work one day and he put gas in the tractor in the harage attached tothe house. It caught on fire! We called 911 and I grabbed Tigger. I had worked midnights and was still in my nightgown. I got in my car and took Tigger to my in-laws. Luckily, the car didn't get burned up. EMTS showed up at my in-laws and said they were taking me to the hospital. My husband was in the EMT van. The EMT looked at my cat and she was alright. Mu husband and I went to the hospital and we were alright.
Our house was destroyed. We saved a few things. It is hard to start over but we did
In the meantime, my husband, Tigger and I stayed in my old principals house. He and his wife were staying at their housr in Florida. I loved my high school principal. Tigger loved going up and down stairs in the big house. She went into a room full of wrapping paper. I never saw so much wrapping paper in my life! We had to shut the door tight to keep Tigger out of there.
We moved into our new house. A modular. Tigger didn't like it. She hid under the bed. She finally came put. She looked out the window and realized she knew the land. She got used to the house and liked it I think.
Tigger lived another ten years. She liked the house. She had her special places to sleep. We made life good for her. Tigger loved to play with stuffed mice. She had a special one that got burned in the fire. I bought her one that squeaked. She liked playing with him. She is buried out back. I have a cat angel statue on her grave. I have a teal green vase with flowers in it. I have a name tag on her grave. I have another cat Bella that is tortoise shell. She has her stories and adventures. I love cats and I wish everyone loved animals! I will always love and miss Tigger.
