But it's all about to how you're feeling. You'll know in your gut when to get another pet, if you ever want to get another one. It's important to take the time to reflect on your lost relationship.", "role": "assistant" } ]

It's actually been an affectionate cat so far.", "role": "assistant" }, { "content": "Cats will make you love animals! They can be so affectionate. ", "role": "user" }, { "content": "I suppose so. I've never gravitated towards them. They seem like they only have one personality, and they're either nice or mean, and never warm up to you over time.

It's a little time consuming, but I've loved woodworking, and my dad was a sailor, so I've been around boats all my life. I decided to combine the two.
