A Conversation with Benji in Quarantine
“When’s it gonna end, Sue?”
“What’s that Benji?”
“This confinement. It’s getting on my nerves.”
“It’s only been a week Benji. Besides. You’re not in quarantine.”
“But you are Sue. And it feels longer in cat years.”
“I suppose it does Benji. But it will be over soon. And we’ll have learned something in the meantime. And hopefully appreciate more all the freedoms we really have.”
“Okay Sue. Whatever you say.”

Benji, you should enjoy having Sue around constantly to cater to your every whim 🙂
Yes, yes I do!! 🙂 – Benji
Lovely conversation….
Thank you. 🙂
Just another day for the pets in our life, Sue.
No worries about the virus, only when dinner arrives.
Best wishes, Pete.
True. Still I think they sympathize with our plight. 😺😻
“And it feels longer in cat years.” 🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂 Thank you Benji! Hang in there!🤗
Thank you! We are hanging in there!! 🙂 🙂 Susanne and Benji
These make me laugh.
Glad to hear it! 🙂 🙂
Kitties have ways to know something’s different, I’m sure! Hang on Benji and help keep everyone safe!
Thanks so much! I think so too. They are very perceptive to the slightest change in their environment. 🙂
If Benji can stay calm and patient, we will all get past this and have the world back to explore! again!
Yes indeed. Benji lacks patience, and I guess so do I!! I can hardly wait to dine out in a restaurant again! Until then, here’s to takeout!! 🙂
I agree that pets know when our schedule changes. Foster seems to be enjoying having “Mom” around, not that I was gone a lot before, since as my friends say I’m pretty much of a “homebody” anyhow😋
I’m home a lot too, but I miss the freedom of going out here and there whenever I feel like it….. especially eating out! Can’t wait for normalcy to return! 🙂
I agree!
How are you guys coping with the new living conditions! I hope you are healthy and happy, that’s the most important thing. We finally had a chance to go for a walk and it was amazing to be outside. Thanks for sharing and stay safe 😊 Aiva
I’m glad you got to get out! Fresh air is wonderful. It’s different here for sure. Things have been shut down in Washington State for a while now with only essential business and grocery stores open. We are learning to stay at home, and only go out for necessities or walks. Thanks for your comment. 🙂
Benji speaks for many of us!
Yes indeed! 🙂

I can’t believe it’s been a whole year since I had this conversation with Benji, but it feels like we’re finally seeing the light at the end of the tunnel!
