Meg
MEG
Hello there everyone. My name is Meg and I would like to tell you about my happy ending. I arrived at Animal Care on 27 July 2007 and was very scared. Two very nice people came to see me every week and gave me treats and cuddles. I wasn’t so sure about these cuddles at first but they persevered with me and I learnt to quite like them. I was still quite grizzly and no one seemed to want to take me home. I was getting very depressed and lonely so my two friends decided to take me home with them on 16 April 2008, which apparently was my 5th birthday.
Well I’ve never looked back. I wasn’t too sure at first, having never really had a proper home before, so I spent a few days in a cardboard box peering out at the world. I was in this box when I first met my big brother Brian, who also came from Animal Care. Well I loved him at first sight but I don’t think he was too happy to see me. After a few days I ventured out and actually liked what I found.
I found a special place to sleep on a very comfortable chair and found I could get a cuddle whenever I wanted one from my two favourite people in the whole world who I now call mum and dad. My brother has really helped me settle in although we do have a love/hate relationship. I love him and he, well let’s say, he puts up with me!!!
As the days have gone by I have settled in more and more and I can honestly say I love it here and never ever want to leave. I get lots of attention and hugs and I get to go for a nice walk round my garden. I also get to play alot and love to chase a stick around. I am so incredibly happy now. Do you know what the best thing is about being with my mum and dad? Well, it’s the race every night to see who can get into bed the quickest. I’m very good and win nearly every night. I love going to bed and cuddling up next to my mum and dad and I stay there all night and never want to get up in the morning.
I hardly remember my time at Animal Care now as I am so blissfully happy here. I love everything about it, apart from when Brian decides to chase me, and occasionally gives me a quick whack with his paws, but mum is normally there to protect me. He just thinks it’s funny and I sometimes whack him back just to show him that girls are tough too.
Here are a few pictures of me. Thank you for reading about my very, very happy ending.
