Some of you may notice that I mention a stray that we "borrowed" from a neglectful neighbor 2 years ago. Well, today, when I came home from work, and drove past her house, I saw the police there. She apparently hanged herself perhaps more than a week ago (she lived alone, and was bi-polar). It's so sad; she had many problems, and apparently was not well-liked by our neighbors, and she did abandon the cat--but she had mental problems. I felt a bit sorry for her, and now I feel so sad. I keep thinking about what Hell she must've been going through recently to do such a thing. She has kids, but her ex has custody of them; everyone said they were scared of her; but, still, she was their Mom. I feel so bad for them, too. It's really upsetting me for some reason, even though I've never met her. I now feel bad for never waving to her (not that she ever waved to anyone) the few times I've driven past her. I only did this because everyone said she could be violent; and I was afraid that she's find out about the 1st cat, and come over some day and start trouble. Also, I got the feeling from everyone (they all lived here before me, and therefore, knew her better) that I should ignore her. Maybe things would've been a bit less grim for her if we had tried to be nice?
She had gotten another cat some time ago. It's been wandering around, and our next-door neighbor is feeding him. We plan to trap him, and try to adopt him out. Wish me luck!
