I know for most of my fellow myLotters this would be a "So what" occurrence...why make a big deal out of it???? But for me it's been almost 3 months. I got up this morning and did my usual chores of feeding Petey and Freya and cleaning their litter boxes and then getting dressed and making my bed. Somewhere through all of that my stomach felt funny. OH NO!!!! Not a relapse of whatever that virus is. I came into the living room/studio and had a seat and some tea and my stomach kind of lightly rumbled. I ignored it, if the virus is kicking up again I'll do like the neighbor has stated and go to the immediate care place across the street. During all of this Petey jumped up on my lap and settled down for our morning loving session, he was really enjoying it when this awful rumble came from my stomach, and he reached up and patted my stomach and meowed at me. My stomach rumbled again, and he got up, looked me in the eye, and meowed really loud and hard as if to say: "You're hungry stupid, your stomach is growling!!!!" It's been so long since I experienced my stomach growling and rumbling that I had to be reminded about being hungry. Petey jumped off my lap, went into the kitchen, and jumped on the counter until I went in to get something to eat. I didn't think that a person's stomach still growled and rumbled. It felt kind of good for a change! Have a great Labor day and a wonderful Labor day dinner!!!! Hugs from Toni, Petey, and little Freya

I am so glad you are not sick with a virus and your smart kitty helped you figure it out.

Sounds like Petey was quite the helpful companion this morning! It’s great that your stomach is just reminding you to eat and not a sign of anything serious. Glad to hear you’re feeling better and enjoying the day.

My Labor Day was ok. I worked on my boyfriend's diamond painting and gave the cats treats.

Very occasionally, my stomach will rumble. Mostly, it doesn't get empty enough! lol

I am glad you weren't having a relapse of being sick. And how sweet of Petey to go to the kitchen to make sure you got something to eat.

I still feel hunger from time to time, but not often. I'm glad that your cat was on top of it and helped you out.
