You're a good friend.

Tell me this isn’t the sweetest. We stayed at her parents’ house a few days as we both still don’t have power. She took one spare bedroom, I took the other. I spent a lot of time cuddling him everyday as he’s been almost like an emotional support pup for me after going through the Hurricane. The day I left, she found him in the room I had been sleeping in <3

A friend here took one of her dogs to another vet this morning, for a second opinion. The dog is about 15 years old, has some permanent medical issues, and appears to be living with pain. It has attacked both the friend and her other dog with no provocation multiple times recently, and seems like he just wants to be left alone.

Her regular vet has been treating this dog's lingering ailments for years, and wanted to keep treating them. The second opinion vet did an examination, and said that the dog had suffered too much already.

I've noticed that our dog has been acting sad this afternoon, as if he can sense that one of his friends is gone.....

That's sad. Give your dog lots of love.

Veterinarians from the University of California, Davis, have discovered that cats with calico and tortoiseshell coat patterns tend to challenge their human companions more often than other kinds of felines.

My cat's got some tortie in her coat. That explains it.

Ever see those cats that guard a hallway or stairwell and if you try to get by you get hit? That's my kitty. lol

She doesn't do that to everybody, though. Just me. She must love me the most.

Or maybe she feels like I'm disrespecting her. Cats…

"Like calicos, tortoiseshell cats are almost exclusively female."

I wasn't going to go there, but it does appear to be one of Nature's enduring patterns - sort of the 'Hot Crazy Matrix' of the cat world. To be fair, our current Tortie is more of a lover than a fighter though.
