There’s a kind of love in our home that barks, chirps, and cheeps—and we wouldn’t have it any other way. Our pets aren’t just animals; they are family, full of personality and joy.
Cooper (or “Coopy,” as we lovingly call him) is our loyal little ball of fluff. Every day, without fail, he parks himself by the door, waiting for Doug to walk in. And if he’s feeling a little impatient? He’ll stare at a toy—or at us—with the kind of silent desperation that only says one thing: Please throw the ball. Please. He’s got us all wrapped around his paw, and he knows it.
And now, our home has been blessed with a new kind of song—CHEEPS! Sweet little Ollie, our new cockatiel, has settled in beautifully. His chirps echo through the halls as he patiently waits for his favorite girl, Tatum, to get home. He’s soft, curious, and oh-so-lovey. Tatum even asked me to draw him, and of course, I said yes. His little spirit just had to be captured.
We have so many precious photos and memories of our beloved Rio too. He’ll always have a special place in our hearts. His legacy of love lives on in the way we welcome and care for each new creature that enters our lives.
Our home is fuller, louder, and better because of our pets. They teach us loyalty, patience, joy—and unconditional love.
To Cooper, Ollie, and Rio—thank you for making our lives richer. We love you more than words (or cheeps, or barks!) could ever say.
