He asked if we had a dog, since the owners were very hesitant to rent to them because they had a dog.
Oh, we have a cat.
He looks startled. Do the owners KNOW this?
Yeah, I told them.
Well, they wouldn't let US keep our cat. We had to give it to my mother. (Sighhhhhhhhh).
Oh, he is an old cat who is very docile and I promised the owner I would take care. I guess you were such good renters, you broke them in for renting to pet owners.
So, I walked by the dog dish (knowing from the owner how much they love their dog) and say, so where is your little dog?
He died last week.
Well, darn, I am doing really well so far.
When I left, I told them how sorry I was about their dog. He got tears in his eyes.
Yep- Three for three: I did just great!
