One of the best things about having a pet is their unconditional love for you! They can be the best after a long day when you collapse on the bed, and they come in for cuddles. I love Mr. P so much and can just stroke him for ages π It is very cathartic and they don’t understand any of the troubles that you have been through in your day. Patches has been the best greeter when IΒ come back exhausted from teaching. I wrote a little “Ode to Patches”
Puts a smile on my face
Always sprints to see me
Took my heart instantly
Can’t get enough!
Hugs are the best
Easy to love
Snuggles snuggles snuggles

Pets are a huge blessing, aren’t they? My puppy is snuggled beside me as I type, and his presence is a comfort. Sweet poem!

Our cat, Slick, passed away early last fall and we’ve not found a Siamese cat to replace him. This slice reminds me about him, but in a good way. He was very playful, with a loud purr, and a mischievous soul.
Thank you for this slice, both for the happiness you share with us and the memories you’ve brought back. π

It can be very hard when you use a pet – Im glad it brought back happy memories! And you will never be able to replace your old cat but you will know when a new cat bonds with you!

I agree. Cuddles with your cat are the best. I have two and they add richness to my life.
