Our mail carrier knocked on my door and asked if he could say goodbye to my cat before he retired.
Cleo is an eight-year-old orange-and-white cat who spends most afternoons on the windowsill facing the street. I work from home and know her routine.
At about two, she'd hear the mail truck stop, climb onto the sill, and wait.
Our carrier, Frank, would put the mail in the box beside the porch, then glance up and give her a little wave.
Cleo usually answered by pressing one paw against the glass.
At first, I thought it was funny. Eventually, it became ordinary.
Sometimes Frank brought packages to the door. That's how he learned her name.
"Where's Cleo today?" he'd ask if she wasn't in the window.
When a neighbor closed the curtains during a trip, Frank asked whether Cleo was okay.
Last Thursday, he brought a parcel that needed a signature.
After I signed, he looked past me toward the window.
"Tomorrow's my last day on this route," he said. "I'm retiring."
I congratulated him.
Then he asked, a little sheepishly, "Would it be alright if I said goodbye to Cleo? She's been my regular for six years."
I told him to come by at his normal time.

Meet Cookie, just 7 mths she's had a tough start. Appeared in a garden with 1 tiny kitten & the next day she returned with another. The following 2 days, she arrived with three more. All on her own, she kept her whole litter alive 😻💜That tells you everything about her spirit🐾
9 months after being lost, found as a stray & landing in a kill shelter, Melo is home for the holidays. Grateful to Grandma Betty's Animal Rescue for saving him, relentlessly searching for his owner & finally arranging his #PNP#FreedomFlight to his family with Captain Nathan.

Frosty is the sweetest cat in his golden years. Could he be your next family member? Though he's endured a lot, this gentleman kept his calm, gentle demeanor through it all. Now he's ready to relax and enjoy life in a home of his own!

Introducing our very pretty Aveda.
She’s been a great mum and looked after her kittens and now deserves to find herself a safe, warm, comfortable furever home.
I interrupted her afternoon snooze, but she’s very sweet and friendly.
Could you offer the home she’s looking for?
“It came to me that every time I lose a dog, they take a piece of my heart with them and every new dog who comes into my life gifts me with a piece of their heart. If I live long enough, all the components of my heart will be dog and I will become as generous and loving as they are”. - Diane Keaton ❤️
A great actress & advocate for animals she will be missed
VICTORY! Cat declawing is officially illegal in California! 🐾🥳
Thank you to all who took action with us and urged your legislators to pass this lifesaving declaw ban bill. Governor Newsom just signed it into law tonight!
