As you probably already know from Siri’ing your Google iCal, today is a special one: Gem-o-versary Number Three. Yes, it was 36 months ago to the day that I adopted my bestest pal. It’s also the day I celebrate her fake birthday, her real DOB being lost to the sands of street-dog time. She was thought to be roughly 2 when I got her, so today she is fake 5. Do you want to watch her eating/being confused by her special birthday treat, but not before I torture her with a sweet Billy Ocean serenade? Of course you do!

(Should you wish to view Gemmy’s adorableness in full HD glory, hie thee hither.)
