I too was called crazy when I first got Molly. Mainly because she's small (4 lbs) and I occasionally dress her up. And, in the cold weather, I make sure she has sweaters along with a new jacket I just ordered for her for the winter to keep her warm.
Oh, I was also crazy when I got her Kwigy Bo Alexa carrier and was totally out of my mind when I ordered her PetZip Monogram stroller for her. To me it makes sense to use when doing a lot of walking.
My family have always been animal lovers, but my friends and some of my family think that I have gone overboard with Molly.
Now, that I'm older, I don't let a lot of comments like that bother me like they would have when I was younger.
Molly is just as special and important to me as my children are. In fact, she almost acts like a spoiled child at times. hehe
