I am not a animal/pet enthusiast . What is a mewling? And how are you a grandma -------->to a cat. My GCs have pets and they get along with me but that is as far as I want to get close to pets.

Mewling is brand new kittens calling for Mommy to be fed.
Referencing myself as a Grandma to the new crop of kittens, is a joke.
You're very lucky you aren't a pet enthusiast.
You will never understand that in a pet household; furniture is spelled furrrrrrrniture. You will never enjoy a warming pillow on your feet; no matter what the temperature is outside.
You will also never understand how great it is to come home and be welcomed without any recriminations.
Live your life in such a way that when your feet hit the floor in the morning; the devil shudders...And yells OH #%*+! SHE'S AWAKE!
Not to mention missing the joy of cat hair as a condiment!!!
My daughter has cats; we've always had them, so she grew up with George I and George II, Orlando, Daisy, and other less memorable felines. She had 3, but lost one to cancer last year. Jonathan, who she's had 10 years, got sick last year. The vet bill was over $1800! Me, I would have paid the vet to give Jonathan a shot to put him to sleep.
Last month, my daughter drove from Salt Lake City to visit. She brought Jonathan. He's trained to a leash. He was wearing a pretty new collar. The collar said "Big Brother". I assumed it meant they were getting a kitty to replace Lulu, who had cancer. So I asked my daughter, "well, are you getting a new kitty"? Her reply: "Not a four legged one!"
Funniest baby announcement EVER.

Hello opposable thumbs--of course I know they aren't actually opposable but you should see them pick up pens and pencils.

Yes it's a thing.

I also agree with the needle business. My former MIL, kept her poodle alive and poor ChiChi was miserable. I fully understand the emotional attachment and why people don't do it. My Rotti needed to go down and it took me 9 months for me to go through with it. It's been over a year and I still cry because I miss her. The hardest part was she'd had a mini stroke and couldn't be trusted anymore. She was getting vicious with the cats, the ChiX and one day it was me. It was a matter of safety since she was a runner and had hearing problems. In the end she could only hear the ChiX when she'd take off and couldn't figure out how to get home.
That being said, I paid a minimum of $800 over a 3 month period in Vet bills the first 4 years I owned her for ear infections. I finally discovered Nature Vet Ear Wash with Tree Oil once a week along with Benadryl twice a day took care of the issue. It was an allergy to what we call cedar fever in TX. Worked like a charm as opposed to the yearly bill of $800 of packing the dog's ears. Definitely, less expensive.
