I recently posted about losing one of my cat family,and,got very little response. I have noticed that intellectual posts tend to get more response than emotional ones. Why, I am wondering? Honestly, I felt disappointed, but,maybe that is just normal here? Should I stick to technical stuff here? Just curious,since I am relatively new.
Sometimes it is hard for someone to share their feelings with a stranger when it hits too close to home. I am sad for your loss. I personally love cats, but would never own one just for that reason - I know I am going to live longer than they will, and I don't want to deal with the emotions that come with their death.
So your cycle of get cat -> cat dies -> remorse -> get another cat is what you have chosen, and that tends to lessen my wanting to respond to your post, too, since I don't want to be judgmental on things you have chosen to do in your life.
