What a terrific topic! During and after treatment our black cat "Snowball" stood constant watch over Kenny. During his worst days it was difficult to get her to leave Kenny long enough to eat. I am sure she helped save his life. As Kenny finally began to heal, I found myself needing the comfort of a pet (Snowball is definitely Kenny's cat!). After having to put down our Chesapeake Bay Retriever a few years ago, Kenny swore we would never have another dog (broke his heart). Anyway, I ended up adopting a Boxer in March (a birthday present to myself). After only a couple weeks of puppy love from Jax, Kenny was hooked! In June Kenny rescued a female Boxer (Daisy) and we are now one big happy family.

So - here's to the pets that have provided warmth, comfort and love! They deserve so much credit that they never seem to get.

Thanks for sharing!
