Actually, I did mention that to her as well as feline leukemia and feline diabetes, the diabetes one was a new one on me when I heard my dad say that his cat had diabetes, and they couldn't let him drink the sugar milk leftover from his morning cereal anymore. Feline AIDS is a real problem here with the feral cat population.
I agree with you here. I have read somewhere about it, that if a person is upset the best solution for him to spend some time with his/her pet or animal. They not only uplift the human mood but also sometimes take their stress out of the mind. Kind of spiritual though true in my case. I just love my pet dog Taffy. My sister had a kitten.
