Is
your family like ours? With pets
running around all over the place.
As far back as I can remember there have
been family pets in our home.
Sometimes they can be a pain in the
"you know where", but for the
most part what would we do without
them! They are an important part
of our family and when one of them gets
sick or passes away you quickly discover
how precious they are and how much
comfort and companionship they give us.
So this page is dedicated to our little
(and sometimes not so little) friends. |
