His nose was touching hers. Caroline was rapidly falling in love.  Of course, Caroline fell in love just about every Saturday. That’s how often she visited the Westport Animal Shelter. The shelter was Caroline’s favorite place in the world. One week she’d be enchanted by a shy cat, the next by a playful dog. Every animal was special in its own way. But Jinks was the most special of all. As soon as she met him, Caroline knew he was the pet for her. “Can I take Jinks home with me?” Caroline asked Ms. Preston, the woman in charge of the shelter.
