Happy 15th Nala!

Yesterday Nala turned 15!! I honestly never thought she would see her 15th birthday after her stroke in December, but alas she proved me wrong :) I can still remember every detail surrounding my purchase of her. I used to visit her in the mall pet store(yes, that's how long 15 years ago is, as now the mall is completely different and there is no trace of a pet store!) almost every day until I got her. I borrowed $ from my then boyfriend and best friend and worked as an intramural volleyball referee at UF until I earned the $400+ to pay them back. It has been a crazy 15 years together, but in the end I couldn't imagine her not being such an importnant part of my life!
