Say hello to Chloe

I was so sad when my precious Lucy got sick recently and had to be put to sleep.  She developed a respiratory infection that went into pneumonia.  We tried every antibiotic they make for pets but she did not respond to anything and after a week in the hospital we had to let her go.  There was so much sadness in our house that even Barney ( my cockatiel) quit whistling and actually stopped making any sounds for a week and a half.  I know that is hard to believe- but that bird (who normally whistles at everyone who enters my house) did not make a sound for over ten days.  I was so afraid that he had gotten sick too-but to our surprise he started whistling again once Chloe came into the picture.  Coincidence?  I don't think so! 



To my surprise, Martin said that he wanted to get another dog right away because it was just too sad without a dog in the house.  Lucy had been with us for over four years and there was such a void once she was gone!  I was even more surprised when Martin said that he wanted to be the one to pick out our new pet.  I think he did a really great job-she is adorable!
