We always wanted a cat. We put it off for nearly 10 years because our boat was too small and our life was so erratic. After we bought a larger boat and our traveling slowed a bit, the excuses over space and customs quarantines evaporated.
To complicate this emerging lack of procrastination tools, our dockmaster was an animal rights activist of the first stripe. One day she appeared with an orphaned kitten only a few weeks old. We took a casual peek at his perfectly formed little face framing wide blue eyes and fell instantly in love. We managed to resist another few weeks, but playing with him in the evenings finally sealed our fates. We were hooked.
