Toby!
spoiler
I met Toby at an animal shelter in Bendigo while dropping off a donation one day. Decided to cheer myself up and pat some dogs while I was there. There was 2 rows of kennels and all of the dogs were barking as I walked through. About three quarters of the way down, there was a kennel with a little white dog that was just sitting on the ground, no barking, no jumping. I decided to say hello to him and when I went into his kennel and sat on the ground, he immediately got into my lap and tilted his head back to look at me and I just fell in love.
While I was sitting in there with him, the shelter photographer came by to take Toby's promotional photos and I panicked and said not to because I was going to adopt him.
Honestly don't even know how I passed the adoption process, but I came back a week later to pick up my little man who became the absolute love of my life.
Alfie!
spoiler
Alfie is Boyo's cat. My best friend worked with a pet rescue and messaged him one day about 7 years ago and said "I've got a cat for you, his name is Alfie" and sent him a photo of a tiny little kitten. Boyo was unsure about the cat, unsure about to name, but met him and absolutely fell in love.
