poor cat---vs---lousy begger

Yesterday, at 5 in morning, biked to local Walmart, up scary hill, with cliff at one side, and lots of tractor trailers zooming by; got to Walmart before 6.
nobody in town had hairball medicine for my constipated cat, with my cat seeming to be losing weight, a week after I spent 200 dollars at vet, with his blood work ok.
got 6 dollar hairball medicine for him, along with 98 cents vegetable oil, that internet article said is good too. got home around 640 in morning, and put tube of medicine in his mouth to almost drown him in the stuff---but he finally used litterbox.
poor cat stuck getting hairball medicine---tuna flavored petroleum jelly---shoved down him for next 7 days, to be safe. And next month horror for him to vet for a shot and check-up.
Just the day before this, my alpha friend and me in a bigger town about ten miles away....with one-legged man begging at entrance to a fast food restaurant.
I bought a cheap burger for my alpha friend, and he got a free mini-shake for me with his key ring fast food card, then outside to the begger----who started walking to us.
my alpha male friend told the one-legged begger a tale of he being an auxiliary policeman, and he better not be begging around here.
the one-legged begger, at the door, simply had one leg behind him, against the building wall, to look like he had one leg!
told off by my alpha male friend, the one legged begger strolled, on two feet, towards nearby woods, where I read long ago of there being a crackhead camp site.

This entry is stimulating. -- Thought provoking.

Lots of ppl and critters need to be helped; tho sometimes not on their terms
entirely. Um, there be parts of of it they can vigorously object to. \"Shuttup and get in the back seat.\" hehe . . . . tnx for publishing this J-entry (((( P. ))))

This sounds like the guy with a cane who hobbled up to my table when I was giving out samples at the store. After I gave him a couple extra treats, he strode away twirling his cane like a dandy.

thanks for the replies, everybody; i apologize for my late response.

my alpha male friend around the time of my origonal post also complained about some hitchhikers he gave rides to---who also asked him to loan them a dollar, on top of the ride.

this morning he threw up some cat grass---after chewing on some cat grass; i gave him some hairball medication afterward.

but, seems a pretty normal event.
