Happiness is... A New Friend

Made for Rising-Artists's latest prompt challenge. "Happiness is..."

Not to get too much into my pathetic childhood, but let's just say that I wasn't good at socializing.
One of the best things my parents ever did for me was get me a kitten. That cat didn't care how awkward or lame I was, if I ate boogers, or whatever. That's the beauty of pets. They don't care about your dumb human faults. As long as you're kind to them, they'll love you anyway. And being the lonely kid that I was, that made a big difference for me.

So for me, happiness was my very first pet. (RIP, Hunter)
