A Pet is a Friend for Life
 
A
number of years ago the Fairbanks Choral Society had a logo designed
and a song written by Ann Kapp Andersen and Tamara Hann on the subject
"A Pet is a Friend for Life." As in previous years, Fairbanks Master
Gardeners and volunteers from the community will assist with the design
and upkeep of the flowers and young trees at the Fairbanks North Star
Borough Animal Shelter during the summer months.

1.
I come home and hear a welcome bark. That says you're glad I'm here.
The most that you expect from me's a scratch behind the ear. I can read
the evening paper; I can catch the T.V. news; You never mind if I
decide to make a little snooze.
2.
I come home and see you curled in sleep; you look so peaceful there.
You blink one eye, then close it fast, pretending you don't care. As I
read the evening paper, you will jump into my lap. You softly purr to
welcome me, and then resume your nap. You're a friend when I'm lonely;
You can sooth an anxious heart. You are always glad to welcome me when
we have been apart. You're a faithful, true companion, and you comfort
me in strife. You're more than just an animal; you are my friend for
life.
3.
You must know a pet is more than just a dog or cat or bird; It is a
caring listener, when no one else has heard. Get a pet, and you'll
discover what we gladly recommend: Adopt a pet to tomorrow; it will be
a lifelong friend. You're so much more than an animal; you are my
friend for life.
