Most people remember the story of getting their first pet super clearly, as if it was yesterday, even if it was fifty years ago! That's just how powerfully emotional this experience can be. Getting a pet is like welcoming a new member to the family. You find yourself opening your heart to this new addition and you allow them to enter your life completely.
We know how wonderful these stories can be. And that's why we invited our users to share with us their heartwarming stories of how they got their first pets! Our users, as usual, did not disappoint. Our comments section was flooded with users near and far sharing with us their wholesome stories. We want to thank everyone who participated for sharing with us such a meaningful memory from your lives!
Sometimes life has a funny way of working itself out! Not everything always goes according to your plans, but things have a way of being okay regardless. Trust yourself and everything will be amazing, just like Debi.
Life's an adventure! Like Amy, sometimes you have to buckle up, throw your kitten in the glove compartment, and keep driving. Just kidding! (Mostly.)
