From a very young age, we had very close contact with various different animals. We were privileged to be friends with cats and dogs, a bush baby monkey, a little duiker buck called Bambi. Our pets, of course, come and go throughout life bringing us enormous joy, lots of laughter and many tears when their time comes to move on. They become our best friend, our confidant, our shadow as they follow wherever we go.... We now take a little journey into memory lane... of our pets and other short stories... ENJOY.
