This is one of my best friends in the whole world. We were pregnant together; we even had our babies on the same day. Her love for me is so calm and uncomplicated. Unwavering. She says hello by touching the tip of her cold wet nose to mine. I need her neurotic obsession with chasing shadows to cheer me up on sad days, and the warmth of her body across my lap on days when I’m feeling lonely. She’s my sidekick, the Robin to my Batman. I love this furball.
That is such an awesome picture! I can tell what a great friend she is by the look in her eyes. So cute!

Isn’t it amazing how animals just light up our lives. Betty was mine. I miss her. There are some nights where I cry because I miss the heaviness of her body on my feet as I go to sleep. Animals truly are the reflections of our souls sometimes.
