Old enough to know better
I wish dogs and cats lived as long as tortoises! Our lives would be less stressful if they could share much more of our lives with us.
No wonder parents always say they should never outlive their children. If I knew I could have all 14 (for this week, anyway!) of my "kids" for the rest of my life many worries would be lifted, but I think I wouldn't cherish them as much as I do now.
