Before long I would hear her running through the house to greet me when she heard my key in the lock and she started waking me in the morning doing "happy feet".
I love your post. I talk to Molly quite a bit as I often talked to Magic, my former kitty. I have also been playing classical music for Molly, especially when I am at work during the day.

Has anyone played music for their cats or dogs? If yes, did your cat or dog have a certain genre that made them more calm/content? And by now you must all think I am crazy
