Well I understand your fears and concerns, my wife never had success with motorbikes because she panics easily and also has dizziness spells. If/when our oldest daughter feels confident enough to ride solo on the roads, the two of us can be drivers and take my wife and our youngest daughter on adventures.
We are lucky to have such an independent and loyal cat. We have a vegan home and nothing here to eat for her other than seaweed potato chips that she loves. There are plenty of houses in our village with fish heads and easy meat like leftover beef and pork, but the fact she chooses to live with us and hunt for 80% of her food really touches my heart. She is a supreme hunter because of her without cat food, so I'm sure she survives well when we are gone.
