Sam
Sam was rescued from a kill shelter on my birthday, just over 5 years
ago. When I met the rescuer to explore the possibility of adopting him, Sam,
overweight and mostly blind, stole my heart away with a delicate kiss to my
nose. Sam always enjoyed life in spite of his many infirmities. Even in his
final days, he would bound out of bed in the morning, eager to start a new
day. His happy, easy-going attitude carried him through the hard days and
became an inspiration to me. Five years together was just too short a time,
my sweets, but I cherish every day of it.
