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 🙂 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 I 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. 🙂

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.
