They are true friends and sorry to hear about sad stories. But I guess that's the times when they show their support.
I just do not understand why my girl is attached to me lately...I am nor sad, no unhappy. But she just wouldn't detach herself from me! Got to the point that she sleeps pretty much on top of me, which doesn't do me any good the next morning, since I still have to get up early to go to work... But I love my Aurora dearly. Maybe she just needs it...
