Old cats are great because they’re mellow and cuddly – until one of them throws up next to your head in the middle of the night. Yep, that’s what happened last night. What do you even do when you’re too exhausted to move, but you have this vomit smell sucking out all of the oxygen from the room? And you can’t exactly get your sleeping spouse off the bed to change the sheets – that would cause a whole other disastrous chain of events. Well, as with anything in life, you do the best you can with what you’ve got at the time. I had tissues on my nightstand and a trash can across the room. I did the best I could, threw the tissues as close to the trash can as I could get, and snuggled up closer to my husband. Obviously there will be a better clean up in the morning, but sometimes you just have to make due and then deal with the problem when you’re more equipped to do so.
