This week will be 5 years since I walked into the pet shop for parakeet food and left with a 7 week old furry little bundle of joy. While I can't recall the exact day that Groucho completely took over our home and our hearts, it was when we found out that my Mom had ovarian cancer. Groucho's next trip was going to be the shelter so he needed us just as much as we needed him. Groucho has been with us through some extremely difficult times always giving us his unconditional love and affection. Soncat and I thank God every day for bringing this extraordinary little guy into our lives, we love him more and more each day. Thank you, dear Groucho, for making our lives a much better place to be by being such an important part of it. Sometimes I can't help but wonder if Groucho knows how very much he is loved.
