My cat Bettsy passed away three hours ago. She passed away and I wasn’t there. You see she’s been living with my parents since I thought it would be mean of me to bring her along when I moved out of my parents house. She’s… she was used to a big house, a garden and liked my mum more than she liked me anyway. So I left her there when I moved to my own apartment and eventually got two other cats who I’ve had for a couple of years now. Still Bettsy was my first cat. I got her when I was only ten years old and she was supposed to turn seventeen in just a few days. Seventeen years she’s been part of my family and now she’s gone. She lived a long and happy life and died safe in my mothers arms but knowing all that doesn’t take any of the pain away. She’s gone, she’ll never come back and I wasn’t there when she died.
Bettsy 930625-100620. I love you. Rest in peace baby. You will be missed.

I had a dream that I was on a fair where they sold pigs. I was standing next to a pig while eating something and the pig looked at my food, reminding me so much of a dog. Then it was sold and I thought “Oh no! They can’t slaughter it” so I tried to buy it myself but the person who bought it wouldn’t let me. Knowing the pig was most likely going to be slaughtered I cried and I woke up with tears in my eyes.
The thing is that I think that I might actually do something like that in real life since I love animals and I don’t eat meat. So I wasn’t overly sensitive in the dream. That’s just the way I am.
I always say that I don’t care about what others eat but that’s not true. Of course I care about whether others eat meat or not but I’m not gonna try to force my opinions on someone else because I hate when others do that to me. I still wish that more people would think like me though.

Kitty cuteness.
I wore these boots during the Hultsfred festival. It was a bit muddy. Can you tell? The reason to why you should never wear too nice shoes at a rock festival.

I just came to think about a debate in junior high on the topic dogs or cats. I don’t remember which one I chose but I do remember finding it extremely difficult since I grew up with both a dog and a cat. Now that I’m grown up and live alone the choice is easy. Cats. Definitely cats. Not because I like cats better than dogs but because cats are easier to take care of.
They’re independent and won’t feel understimulated if you’re gone for ten hours. They also don’t need to be taken out for walks every few hours. If I get to sleep until I wake up by myself I sleep for twelve hours. I’m pretty sure a dog can’t go without peeing for that long. And this whole taking the dog for a walk early in the morning thing doesn’t seem like a lot of fun. No, I definitely prefer cats.
How about you? Cats or dogs?

I’m so sorry for my little brother right now. Tonight his guinea pig Pärlan (swedish for “Pearl”) died. She’s been sick for a while and tonight she got worse. She died in my brothers arms a couple of hours ago. At least she died feeling loved, being held and patted. I talked to mom on the phone and told her to give my brother a big hug from me. Poor Smulan (swedish for “crumble”), my sisters guinea pig is all alone now.
Having pets is wonderful. The entire family have had pets since forever. Dogs, cats, mice, hamsters, guinea pigs, a rabbit and even a snake. I have two cats living with me and one cat living with my parents. Bettan who is living with my parents turns fifteen this summer and I’m geting quite worried about loosing her soon. I remember how horrible it was loosing my dog Puff a couple of years ago. My parents got him for me when I was two years old and he died when I was twenty, three months before his eighteenth (!) birthday. I still miss him a lot and just thinking about him brings tears to my eyes. That’s the only bad thing about pets. They die too soon. A eighteen year old dog is quite remarkable but it’s still such a short time conscidering us humans can live up to a hundred years if we get to keep our health. My parents have another dog now but he’ll die before us aswell and so will all my cats. We get to have our pets for such a short time.

Read the previous post if you don’t understand swedish.
Dagens I-landsproblem: Min katt Sarah har blivit överviktig efter steriliseringen så nu äter hon LIGHT-KATTMAT! Nu är det ju iofs inte mitt fel att hon har blivit tjock för hon äter precis lika mycket mat som tidigare så det beror definitivt på steriliseringen. Dock lär det ju finnas många människor som ger sina katter onyttig mat och därmed göder dem så mycket att de till slut behöver banta och äta light-mat. I-landsproblem, no?
EDIT: Jag tittar på “Lyxfällan”. Alltså människorna i det programmet har ju inget grepp om verkligheten. Människor i min ålder med skulder på flera hundra tusen kronor! Visst känns det lockande att köpa nya teknikprylar och fina kläder för att inte tala om en större lägenhet men finns inte ekonomin för det får man väl anpassa sig! Jag är verkligen jättedålig på att hantera pengar men när jag varit slösaktig får jag stå mitt kast och leva på gröt och pasta medan jag väntar på pengar. Visst lockar de snabba lånen och avbetalningarna men problemet är ju den oftast skyhöga räntan. Jag kan inte fatta hur folk kan vara så ansvarslösa att de lever så mycket över sina tillgångar att de är skuldsatta och finns i kronofogdens register efter att inte bott ensam mer än i max fem år. Jag är fattig och det är jättetråkigt att jag inte kan köpa allt jag vill ha. Visst skulle jag vilja ha en tvåa men det har jag inte råd med. Visst skulle jag villa ha råd att köpa kläder varje månad men det går inte. Och oj vad jag vill åka på en spontansemester utomlands! Vad som gäller är att spara! Lån är bara dumt så vida det inte är väldigt viktiga sådana. Sådana lån som mina föräldrar har. Hus och bil t.ex.
