My favorite coffee mug quote has always been: May I become the person my dog thinks I am.

Thanks again, and Merry Christmas!

My first Christmas without my baby. The Christmas card from the vet and crematorium did NOT help to cheer me up...only made it worse. What a dumb idea to send them out. 2020 sucked!

a cat or kittens or a dog or puppies? Animal control around here always has litters of kittens that they want people to foster.

It might make your sorrow a little more bearable to help another fur baby out until you are ready to adopt again.

when I lived in a house with hardwood floors. I loved doing that. In fact when I die that animal refuge is getting a lot of my money. Now I live in an apartmemt with wall to wall carpets and that wouldn't work out well.
