Here is our August furry friend:<\/p>\n

Lilly, Quebec<\/strong><\/h3>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Our cat Lilly does nothing fancy like climbing up a slope, looking for lost skiers or snowboarders after an avalanche, or sit on the chair lift like many other pets of the month.<\/p>\n

She does not even come to the ski hill with me. Lilly could care less about ski patrol. She is so lazy that she prefers to simply lie on my spouse\u2019s lap for hours.<\/p>\n

That is why I believe that Lilly should be the pet of the month. If not for her, my spouse Judith would never let me go as often to patrol on the slopes nor teach the first aid course!<\/p>\n

In fact, all my duties with the CSP would not be tolerated as they are if not for Lilly.<\/p>\n
