I never was a child who begged my parents for a pet. Of course, I had times when I would look into my parents’ eyes after seeing a cute dog in a pet shop or after petting a cat on the street. But I was happy with what I had. Way back, when I  just 4 years old or so, I had a pet rabbit. I loved Bubu with all my heart. But then we moved away, so we had to give him away. Then I had pet turtles. I loved them with all my heart as well. I actually found them very interesting at that time. But as I said, I never was a pushy child in the pet area.

Then, I had a dream. I still remember it vividly. In this dream, I was in my bed. I then reached my hand out and called out a name. A white dog had listened to my call and came across the hallway all the way up to my hand. I still remember the touch of its cute, wet nose on my hand.

Yes, it seemed like a very simple dream, but let me tell you! That was 4 years ago and right after my dream, I saw this cat on a pet site. I was OK with the idea of adopting a cat but my mom wasn’t. Anyways, we adopted her and Natasha is like a dog. She comes whenever I tap on my lap or whenever I call her name.

I guess that you could say that I asked the Universe for a pet who would obey me. I am in love with Natasha and I can’t see my life without her. Pets really do change your life, they are the best! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!
