We have the privilege of having 2 dogs, 2 cats, and 2 gold fish in our family.

We are, of course, hoping all of our animal friends will last forever.
Molly is 15, though, and is almost totally deaf, has cataracts, and mysterious wart-like things and cysts here and there. She has many days where she totally enjoys life, however.
An example – today I let her out of the front door. I followed her because I wanted to water the elephant ear plants on the front porch, plus cut off one leaf that needed to be removed. As I walked with the cut leaf across the yard, Molly jumped and danced, wanting to play. What a joy it was to see her bright eyes, laughing face, and sweet little body leaping back and forth and barking at me, thinking the cut-off-leaf was a toy!
We are rich in animals. I can’t imagine my life without at least ONE.
I’ll probably end up being an old lady whose house is FULL to OVERFLOWING with adopted pets…
