My husband brought our cat up with him on this trip north. He pulled a utility trailer loaded with his tools. Cat rode in the cab of truck. We have taken her camping, but she had never done a long drive like this [14 hrs]. It's the first time I have seen her in 5 months. It was joyous to me to hold her again. She hasn't left my side. This morning for the first time ever, she voluntarily jumped up into my lap to settle down. It is quite a milestone, as we have had her for two years, and she is a rescue. Animals have always been a huge part of my mental health.
