This is such a wonderful and beautiful way of celebrating memories and holding onto them forever.
Mary Macinnes has come up with this heartwarming idea and makes Teddy bears from old clothes of people's loved ones, including pets, to help people preserve their precious memories. In Macinnes own words, she sums up what is a 'Memory Bear,' "Memory Bears are special bears made from clothing that belonged to a special person in your life and a way to keep the essence of a loved one close by. They are comforting to children & adults and loved by those who appreciate the memorial tribute and connection to their loved on."
Macinnes usually spends 5-6 hours planning, cutting, creating & sewing each bear, and each one is beautiful and full of memories.
If you're still looking for that perfect gift to give for the holidays. or just in general, a memory bear would make quite a memorable gift.
A blind bison named Helen has been roaming the fields of Lighthouse Farm Sanctuary for years, all alone. This was due to the fact that Helen had nervous disposition, she purposely would separate herself from other animals.
Until now. Oliver, a young Jersey calf has fought his way into Helen's heart with his gentle and kind manner. Since being introduced to Oliver, Helen and Oliver have been inseparable. They do everything together, so much so, that Oliver's fur has even changed in shade to match Helens!
Gwen Jakubisin, at the Lighthouse Farm Sanctuary, told USA Today, "The change in [Helen's] demeanor is incredible, her joy is palpable."
With around 250 farm animals currently at the sanctuary, Helen has slowly started to reach other to other animals and is extending her social circle -- all thanks to her new courageous friendship with Oliver.
Helen has also become something of a surrogate mum for Oliver. Jakubisin said, "Betsy (Oliver's mom) usually drops Oliver off at "daycare" and roams around while Helen watches over him for the rest of day, and she's cool with that. I catch them grooming each other, which is amazing because I don't think Helen has ever had that opportunity to express that motherly instinct before."
We all need love. No matter what shape or form it comes in. And Helen and Oliver is simply further proof of that.
Here's to you, Helen and Oliver! We adore your unlikely friendship and have learned from it.

Amalie Markota Andersen has taught her pet rat, Darius, to do something quite extraordinary -- paint! Anderson herself is an animation and digital arts student and told The Insider that it only took Darius roughly 10 minutes to complete a masterpiece.

Darius and his paintings have been going viral on the internet since this past Saturday, when pictures of him and his work were shared by a now-private account.

It's no surprise for a dog to be adventurous, go on majestic hikes, and to thrive in the great wide open! However, what is surprising is that Henry doesn't go on these outdoor adventures alone.

There are different types of depigmentation in felines; Leukoderma ("white skin"), leukotrichia ("white hair") or vitiligo, which leaves cats with a "snowflake" appearance. All the conditions are very rare and purely cosmetic, meaning the animals who have the rare condition aren't physically affected by it.
Vitiligo is one form of leukoderma. It usually causes loss of pigment on the face and feet, and this form of vitiligo has been linked to cats that derived from South-East Asian (Siamese, Burmese and related breeds).
