Today's Short Story Challenge: "The Message" 
January 7, 2013: Are you a dog person, a cat person, or "other"?
Both. I never got a pet till I was 21.5 and a married; there’s been mostly dogs, but also cats. I had Rufus for 27 months, March 2002 to Aug. 3 2004, then he was taken from me; we moved from GA to FL, all over Fl, to Spokane, then to Spokane Valley. Not another pet until Pookah (pronounced Pokey) literally adopted me in early July 2010: crossed the busy street in front of the house, moved down the side yard, came in the back door, curled up for 2 days on a blanket in the back foyer under the table near the laundry nook; then moved into my room (on his own design). Has been with me since. Bit-Bit (formerly Little Bit) was given to two of the grandsons for birthdays in May 2010, but adopted me and has lived in my room for I guess, a couple of years.
Rufus, Pookah, and Bit-Bit (and our Black Lab, Bear/aka Tarball/aka Black Gator/aka Silas) are of course canines. (or four-legged humans)
