I play the violin. I work in the music industry. I like classical music. My mother was a nurse. I like Indian food. I am allergic to cats.
I love reading comics. I work at home. My favorite food is Chinese food. Indian food is too spicy for me. I don't know how to play an instrument. I like all types of music.  My favorite band is Nightwish. I own a cat, but have never owned a dog.I've had cats for most of my life.
I think I may have found a dog to adopt at an animal shelter website that I was looking at earlier. Awesome!  What breed of dog is it?  How old is he/she? It is a sheltie.  It is such a great breed because they aren't too big but are still strong enough to go on hikes with me.  She is about a year and appears to have some training. That would be perfect; I would imagine that training puppies can be a bit difficult...so a one-year-old dog seems perfect.  I'm so glad it's an outdoorsy dog too...that will fit in perfectly with your lifestyle!   I'm happy to not have to deal with house training. I understand that most kittens learn to use the litter box very quickly.  Did you have to train your cat? Hardly.  In terms of litter box training, when I brought my cat home as a kitten, the first thing I did was show him where the litter box was (I literally plopped him in it), let him sniff a bit, and then that was it.  It's like it was ingrained in his brain from that moment on!  Every now and then we need to work on him nipping (light biting--usually just playing) me, but overall, there was hardly any work involved on my part. That sounds amazing. My last dog took about six weeks to house train.  I'm curious what kind of music my new dog will like?  Since he's a sheltie, maybe I should try playing Celtic music for him. Hahaha!  If your dog ends up liking Celtic music, you should take a video showing him enjoying it...I bet it would go viral!  Maybe you could play your violin for him and see if you get a reaction out of him! That's a good idea. I usually just play classical music and my old dog would take a nap while I was playing.  Does your cat like to take a nap on your lap and then pop into your zoom calls?  Funny thing about my cat...he's not so much a lap cat...like, he won't just curl up on my lap and chill...but, he sleeps curled up right next to me every night.  As for the Zoom calls, yes, my cat hopes on all the time...he's so nosy!  It's always embarrassing when he turns around and all you see on my Zoom call is my cat's tush. I love it when people's cats join their calls.  I'm sure your cat's tush is just the thing to give a little needed fun on a call.  Much better than turning on a cat filter by mistake.  Hahaha oh my gosh, like that lawyer that went viral not that long ago?  I suppose a quick little shimmy shake from my cat can liven up an otherwise boring meeting!  Hey-when you get your dog, let's have a Zoom call and see if our pets acknowledge one another!
