My coworker and I were actually discussing both of those shootings earlier today. The one was about 2hrs NE of me. It's sickening. I hope all involved can find peace and/or justice. I don't know what else must happen before this country starts altering its culture.
On a lighter note, I pet-sat my friends' cat (and fish and bearded dragons) this weekend, and I tried harness training him because he was desperate to be out on their porch. Sadly, it seems that my friends didn't update his harness since his failed training when he was a kitten, so the harness wouldn't fit. He's also a wiggly stinker, so I didn't trust just holding him or otherwise trying to block him while out on the 2nd story apartment porch. He'd likely wiggle through the banister before I could stop him and then I'm sprinting around to try to get outside to catch him. 😅 So inside we stayed with the porch storm door open and the screen door shut. Maybe the next time I pet-sit he'll have a proper-sized harness (and is successfully trained). Traveling, adventurous cats are so magical to me. So thank you for that article.
