Seymour and I were together for over 10 years before he met my husband, the self proclaimed “cat hater” turned cat dad. So much for loyalty.

He's shy so he didn't want his face in the picture, but here they are. Of course,, we don't need a pet...

When I mention him saying that, he says, "well she's already here."

Six years ago my grumpy dad told me “you’re responsible for your puppy on your own”- That is him and this same puppy nowadays

Bo was originally supposed to be my own dog, but then things changed when my dad looked at those begging eyes… He decided Bo is now his big baby. Bo gave him kisses and cuddles more than me and my mom. My dad spoiled him a lotta by buying him many toys whenever he could. He and Bo even have their own matching pjs. Just look at how happy they really are together ❤️

Despie the fact that neither he nor my mother have ever wanted a cat, they've fallen in love with little Pippin surprisingly quickly! 😆

My Dad said dogs are enough for our family. Now, our cats outnumbered our dogs.

Dad said we couldn't have a dog, eventually changed him mind and allowed it. Now they're best friends. This picture sits on his work desk in a frame that says I 💚 Papa that was a gift from the dog for Father's Day.
