My Cat is My Best Friend

Coping With Leaving Your Animals While at College.

My Cat is My Best Friend

If you do not know me, I am absolutely obsessed with my cat, Charles. I rescued him when I was a junior in high school and we have been best friends ever since. For the first few weeks of college, I would FaceTime my mom each night just so I could see him and see his sweet face, Leaving the pet that you spend everyday with in high school really can take a tole on a person but I want for you to know that they do never forget who you are. Sure they are a little upset with you when you come home to visit but the next day, they want to sit in your lap and get all the attention they can because you still are their best friend. Oops I forgot I left this very important detail our- Charles is a twenty pound tabby boy. When we found him back in high school, he was only three months old and very frail. We found him in my alley behind my house in mid-November when it was just starting to get cold. I held him in my arms for a straight week, during the thanksgiving holidays, because he had to be warm all the time. Charles is not just your run of the mill kind of cat, he can do many tricks including sitting on command and also fetching his favorite toys which are pipe cleaners. He has the best personality and is always going to tell you what he thinks. He is truly a blessing and I am so happy to be able to spend some time with him this thanksgiving break.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
