“What do you do with it? You take care of it - have you really never had a pet before?” This will do them both good. Tim explained it to him in a rather helpful manner, actually. And not all condescending, which is why Jason even bothered to do it.
Taking care of a cat will force them to take care of themselves: feed them, bathe them, wake up at a reasonable hour to take care of them. By making a routine for the cats, they do so for themselves as well. It’s a good way to heal without feeling like they’re healing.
Because let’s be real, neither him nor John could ever do something productive in their lives.
“It was a stray I saved it,” he found it with it’s head suck in a jar, attempting to get some food. And now it’s theirs. “I haven’t named her yet. Figured we could do it together.”
Give each other both some bonding, as well as some responsibility. Besides, the at is just so damn cute, how could Jay ever throw her out? “So, she’s a keeper. Right?”
