When I was married to my first husband I desperately wanted to have a kitten and he always refused and never wanted let me have one. ( it was an abusive and violent marriage) When my marriage with him broke up after him trying to unalive me, that first Christmas that I went out and get a kitten for me and my girls. It was me reminding myself that I always wanted to make sure that my needs were met. My lovely (2nd) husband is a dog person more than a cat one. And to be honest I mainly am a dog person too. But I have wanted a cat. So the fact that my husband chose this cat for me knowing I needed it when he’s not really into them himself has healed something in me. Because once again I reminded that when you love someone you keep an eye out for the things that they really need, and you make sure they get them if it’s within your power. And that’s the love we have for each other. And it’s just a completely different experience. (And I definitely needed this kitten) #HusbandWife #TraumaRelease #newkitten #healingjourney
