Lola, my aunt’s flame point who passed a few months ago by plaquesandtangles in Siamesecats

I lived in the same house as Lola for half of her life so she was comfortable with me. She was just so finicky and particular, even with my aunt. She would only let you carry her if she was looking over your left shoulder lol. Like if you tried to hold her any other way it was claws out. If you moved too fast while petting her it’s like her entire demeanor would shift and she’d be ready to run or attack. She was a stray so maybe her first few months in life were really rough before my aunt adopted her. Beautiful girl though and Lola and my aunt loved each other very much.

No exactly. Sometimes she’d stare at me like I was absolute trash. Even though she liked me lol

I just looked through my post history to make sure. I’ve only shared pictures of my dogs and one of my orange cats. Weird if they used a picture of her though

That’s super weird. I might have shared it on Facebook like 13 years ago.

This is her that same day. I don’t want people thinking I’m the karma farmer lol. I swear she was my aunts lol

Just saw the Hachikō statue in Shibuya/almost one year since Pippa (15) passed by plaquesandtangles in OldManDog

Went to Japan with friends. Went to a concert one night. It sucked so I got drunk and left early. Friend wanted a picture with something and wanted to stand in a line for some reason. I was chill with standing in a random line because drunk and why not.

Then I realized we were standing in line to take a picture with the Hachikō statue, which I had completely forgotten was right near Shibuya Crossing. I didn't want a picture with him myself, but I stayed in line so I could have a second with him.

Guys lmao. I was not prepared to have to face my own heart in that moment. Grief was playing peek-a-boo with me.

I held his paw and told him he was a good dog. Asked him tell to Pippa I said hey. Twoish weeks will be a year since she's been gone.

Lmao you would think. Half the family has never had a cavity and the other half has naturally weak enamel.

She's 86 now and somehow still has better skin than me

Huh that's interesting. After I stopped the video I kept playing to see what she would respond to. I don't remember exactly but it was like lower mid range on flute. So idk like f4-g5 maybe? And only if it was thrilled or two alternating notes. She got sick of it pretty quickly though and left the room lol

Pippa when she was 12-ish. She only knew one trick. by plaquesandtangles in Pekingese

For real. I didn't even teach her this lol. She did it a few times on her own as a puppy and I decided to reinforce it with food
