Touch and Go

There are pets and then there are people in fur coats.                                                  My Angel Face was a people in a fur coat.                                                              She loved to go riding in the car.                                                                                                                                                  She would put on her seat belt and mommy would be put on hers.                                           Then it was off to hit the road to see what we could see.                                              With delight to the bank for a cookie.                                                                        Angel Face seemed to know when there were no cars-no red lights in front of us.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                      She would take her left paw/leg and press down on my right thigh.                              She would press down until I would go.                                                                    She would do her touch and we would go faster.                                                        Touch my leg again and we would go even faster.                                                        We never figured out how Angel Face knew my leg worked the car.                            She wanted speed and she got it.                                                                                My Angel Face was a people in a fur coat.

Loved pets become almost human, the same can be said of an animal that is loved by the family he lives with and each one has a unique character. This pet who is a people sounds too cute. Hugs and blessings, Jennifer.
