Pet Portrait: Tuna With His Toys

This is Tuna, our beloved family pet. He came when my older son was 8 years old, and I didn't know if I would be able to expand our family, so I felt really blessed to have Tuna to cuddle with. He would come meowing to me every night around 7pm, and would want me to carry him on his back like a baby. I would stroke his belly until he fell asleep, and would be stuck on the couch for about two hours before he woke up and wanted his space:)

Here he is pictured with his favorite stuffy that he'll carry to his sleep spot - a polar bear we bought at the Woodland Park Zoo in Seattle around 14 years ago. As well, his favorite toys - curled up pipe cleaners that he will fetch and bring back to you if you throw them during zoomie time!
