I was in the middle of severe depression and panic attacks, along with other health problems, my daughters were spending the first ever enitre summer away from me, I was in general just a mess. My mom bought my furbaby as an early bday present and I can honestly say I never understood how people were so crazy for their animals until Motley came into my life. He has brightened my life in many ways and I am still really in shock that I could be come so attached so fast.
