My Brother's Childhood Alargies

i grew up on kind of a little farm situation, and we always had dogs and never catsye. But i when we moved to florida from washington state, it was no longer a farm situation. And i remember one day on the way home from saturday morning ballet class, my dad drove me to a place where they had cats  and i picked out a little black kitten. She lived until i was in her thirties, a, my early thirties. So she lived a very long life, even though she was an outdoor cat. You know, outdoor cats usually live significantly shorter lives than indoor cats, not always. They are clearly outliers.
