Ash is the Best Do you love your pet? I LOVE mine. He helps me, and is funny, and attracted to humans. Ash is the BEST. He is observant, helpful, playful, and loves people! Ash has a strong attachment to humans. There is just an air about him, and you know he loves you. I have gathered and created quotes to back this up, and to help you understand why animals are attached to us. These quotes are for people to understand how our pets love us. “In some cases, even death isn’t enough to break a strong bond. A dog in Scotland sat by his master’s grave for years waiting for him to come back. He died waiting.When cats bring home a dead animal as a token of love, it’s a sign of attachment and bonding. A cat may also follow you around if you have a strong bond. Maybe not immediately, but they’ll saunter into the room after a few minutes. They might also become slightly depressed when you leave, and greet you enthusiastically when you return. Also, cats may learn to recognize the sound of your car pulling up or your footsteps. Well, our pets may not be able to talk to us or hold our hand, but it’s not a stretch to describe what they feel for us as LOVE.” ~ John Tish “Sometimes you are cuddling your hamster, rabbit, or gerbil, and they will spit food all over you. This is a sign of affection. Rodents have a way of sensing hunger and other physical feelings people have. When they sense hunger in you, they will spit out food to satisfy it.” ~Lolly Cochran

Ash is observant. I wrote a personal narrative to back it up. A short, short time ago, in a place, not so far away, I was cleaning my room. And Ash was watching me. Eventually, I finished. A day or two later, my room was messy again. That day I let Ash out of his cage, and he ran all over the room. Then, I left him like that for a few minutes while I left the room. When I came back to my now (almost) CLEAN room, I found Ash sitting in the middle of the room, with all the small junk in the room where they go. He had been watching me for a while, and had remembered where the toys went, and he put them away! Wow!

Ash is kind. He can understand my feelings. I have written about something that is part of my life every day to back this up. A lot of the time, I come home from school, sad, or upset, and I'll let Ash run around the room while I just lie on the floor. After a minute, he'll read my mood and come over to me, and cuddle and try to cheer me up. A long time ago, friend said she missed her cat. When I asked her why, she said, “it could read my mind. He'd want to play when I'm happy, let me hold him when I'm sad, and he'd run away when I'm mad.”

I hope that Ash will continue to be the best hamster, just like he is now. Because if he doesn't, then I won't be able to brag about it anymore, he wouldn't play with people anymore, and he wouldn't comfort me and my brother anymore. I realize that when I play with him, or watch him, I feel like he really is the best. Because he always makes it fun for everyone around him.
