<h3>ever loving, ever goofy, puppy dogs</h3>
<p>
my mom found herself wanting a dog when i was a teenager. she researched for quite some time and found her self interest in the west highland white terrier, or the westie, as they are sometimes called. she had purchaed a westie from the pet store, unknown to her at the time this place was mistreating the animals it was raising and breeding. so their is some good in this pup coming home with us, even if it gave money to a store that thankfully was later caught and made to give up selling animals because of this. she was much smaller than her breed would suggest, but she was full of love. we named her montana. i had a **very** nerdy habit of naming pets after codenames for apple computers. i don't remember which one was codename montana, i just know this is why the dog is named montana

my mom decided one westie was not enough. knowing that purchasing from a pet store was not a good idea, she contacted a breeder and picked a second pup. he was a goofball, not real smart but rambo was full of love and so much joy. i have never seen a being that was truly happy every day like rambo was. every day was the best day yet for him. the satisfaction of being a dog was not lost on him, he showed his joy and love in every way

<h3>love on four paws</h3>
<p>
the final pet i want to talk about is my current pet. his name is baxter and he is a domestic shorthair cat. he is currently 9 years old. this cat and i have formed a bond so wonderful. i worked hard to get to know him on his terms, and he has rewarded me with the love and affection only a loving pet could show. he often follows me all around the house, curious to see what i'm doing. he loves when i sit with him while he eats, often purring while crunching his food. he loves cardboard boxes, and has one in my room to sleep in while i work on the computer. he occasionally cuddles with me in bed when it is time for sleep. this is the best type of sleep for me, to have this purring, warm, loving creature laying on my chest slowly getting sleepier. sometimes he is still there in the morning, and greets me with a soft meow as i open my eyes for the day. baxter and i have been through so much together. jobs, relationships, sickness, health, ups, downs. he's been there for it all. he is my closest friend it feels like sometimes. it is so wonderful to be truly understood by this cat, and to truly understand him as well. i look forward to many more years with baxter, and i think he thinks the same
