i can’t let her be that woman

Persian_Kittens_stroller

i saw a lady in our neighborhood pushing one of these down our street today. that’s right she had placed her cat in a caged off stroller for the purpose of taking the cat on a walk around the block (as a dog owner ethics i will not link to the awful device). while i usually would applaud anything that encourages a person to exercise i simply cannot encourage this. THIS IS WRONG!

the potential of pamela using one of these is scary to me. pam has told me before that one of her goals is to eventually become to “crazy, old, cat lady.” if i pass away too soon she might actually use one of these to walk our two cats around the neighborhood. this cannot be allowed to happen.

yet another reason that i run … to prevent pam from becoming that lady.

and the article is …

yesterday i posted about a discussion that pamela was having with some pastors’ spouses and a tweet that pete wilson had made. today google reader showed that pete wilson had blogged about the article he tweeted concerning. so here’s a link to wilson’s post and the article can be found here.

SIDE NOTE – at the moment i am on break from a 4 hour seminar on notifying someone when a loved one has died. this is part of chaplain training for the stevens point police department. after an hour of stories this is going to be a hard day.
