No one tells you about your teeth going weird as you get older. I'm seriously considering some cosmetic dentistry.

It's amazing how quickly changes happen.

For alone and lonely, I recommend cats. Some people prefer dogs, but then you have to walk them and clean up after them. Plus I find the antics and attitudes of cats immensely entertaining.

Well, I can afford it now and I'm really annoyed that I didn't get braces on the NHS when I was a teenager. I should have spoken up and fought for it. I've got a crooked tooth that has worn strangely and it wouldn't have if it had been corrected early on.

MY friends Mum got braces recently, which gave me the confidence to give it a go. She's in her 40s. If she can do it I can too

I do have pets. They make me happy. They are such funny critters. It's great to see them so happy and relaxed just lounging round the house. Or when they're so happy the bounce about and do zoomies.

I bet you can still do somersaults!

My best friend at age 15 was a Persian cat who bought me out of depression.

With the aid of a trampoline maybe. I just about killed myself climbing a hill the other day.

I have chronic health issues, so I have to pace myself.

Cats are perpetually petulant and moody sourpusses. Dogs are lively, gregarious and a big ball of cuddly fun.

Choose dogs, not cats. Cleaning up after a dog is like cleaning up after a baby. Sure it sucks but no one doesnt love a cute dog/baby

Teeth that are not perfect add to ones character and make it easier for people like me. Besides. Fraggles don't have teeth?

My cats were very much like stereotypical dogs.

Floyd used to beg like a dog

Being old is a mindset, NOT a number of chronological age. You're old only because you adopted the old and senile paradigm that says past a certain number of years lived senescence, decline and lack of vigor are the new norm that one must adopt to. Only that's BS and nonsense and patently false.

Agreed.
