One of my favorite passengers in my cab is an elderly gentleman that goes every day to sit with his wife in a nursing home. He feeds her, takes her outside on nice days, and generally dotes on her. They have been married for over 60 years. I take him there most mornings, and pick him up most afternoons. We stop by the grocery store so he can get fruit for his wife and cat food. At one time he had 13 cats, but they all passed away of old age or disappeared. He was very sad to be catless, but then a beautiful calico came up to visit and he took her in. A few weeks ago a beautiful gray tabby showed up. He showed her to me, and was just delighted that she is having kittens. His son will help get everybody spayed and neutered, and he will have cats again. He loves their company, and says it helps a little since his wife is no longer living there. It just makes my day to see this dear little man.
