I didn’t exactly plan to adopt Kailua (Marco Chopper) and Forest (Bear) when I went for a visit, but I fell in love. Both of these boys had a rough start to life, with a variety of medical issues, but our vet set everyone right, and all is well now. Kailua and Forest weren’t a bonded pair when they left HSHV together, but they are now. They hate to be apart, and if Forest doesn’t know where Kai is at any time, he begins to cry loudly until Kai pops in to let him know he’s still there. They wrestle and eat and do absolutely everything together. They’re also very snuggly boys. I feel so lucky to have them in my life.
