Anyone who has cried over novels like Old Yeller or Dog of Flanders doesn't have to be told that pets are people, too. By that, I mean animals have feelings and emotions. 

 

Still, I'm glad that scientists test these assumptions, if only to validate that all living organisms—no matter their species, physical size, or the size of their brains— have “mood states.”  

 

In other words, they can be just as grumpy as you.

Or driven by desire, anger, trust, or love.

We've come to accept that humans are animals. 

Well, now we have to wrap our brains around the fact that, apparently, animals are humanistic.

Then again, anyone who has loved a pet already knows this, right? 

 

If you have a story about a pet that showed emotions that moved you, please write to tell me about it.  I'd love to share your story on my Facebook page.

“The most engrossing books I have ever read. Wish it would continue! Kept me reading almost every day! Author please continue with the series.”

Amazon's Marci Saver

 

 

“No Spoilers. Just heartfelt praise. This book is another exciting adventure in Donna & Jack Craig's crazy life of espionage. I have thoroughly loved each and every one of the books in this series. Even though I rarely write reviews, I want to thank Josie Brown for being one of my very favorite authors. OK, so shared with Stephen King, who has been a favorite since the '70s. This is as exciting and fun to read as each of the previous. One of thevery few series that I have stuck with and continue to enjoy.”
