Martini made me cry today. [View all]

She has really been fighting me on her medicine lately, clawing, squirming, even growling at me. After I get it in her mouth and manage to get her to swallow it, she takes off to parts unknown.

But she doesn't hold a grudge; she always comes back to sit next to me and accept pets and scritches. I realized it's because she loves me and I was so overcome with emotion, I started to cry. My sweet, sweet Martini. What did I ever do to deserve such a wonderful cat?
