For 30 Years, This Cute Critter Was Thought to be Extinct -Until Now
When researchers first stumbled upon the kangaroo rat, they had to search through old field notes in order to figure out exactly what it was.
It's been three years since Paige Moomey adopted her beloved son: Waylon the sheepdog. But as Mother's Day approached, she decided she was going to surprise her pup by reuniting him with his birth mom over 400 miles away.
Paige, who works as an editor for online media platform DOSE, currently lives with Waylon in Chicago, Illinois. Back in 2014, however, she drove all the way to Georgetown, Kentucky in order to adopt the young sheepdog.
By the time they arrived in Georgetown, Waylon's mother Addie was waiting at the top of the hill of her farmhouse wearing a pink bow in anticipation of her son's arrival.
The two instantly reconnected, joyfully frolicking about the yard and catching up on some much-needed cuddling.
"I watched Waylon bask in his old stomping grounds, reacquainting himself with his life before he met me," wrote Paige. "After plenty of mother-son bonding, Addie flopped down next to me, humbly asking for a belly rub. Mom-to-mom, we sat there silently and full of love."
It may not be the most conventional Mother's Day celebration, but it sure is pawsitively adorable.
