Jamaica Stays By His Best Friend’s Side During Emergency Surgery

Jamaica Stays By His Best Friend’s Side During Emergency Surgery

Meet Jamaica. She’s one of the sweetest pitbull’s you’ll ever across. She loves all toys, but she has a special place in her heart for soft toys. Her favorite? A bright pink octopus chew toy that brings her all the joy in the world!

Ever since she got it from her grandmother, she has refused to leave its side. Her mother, Ana María Peñas del Águila shared that it is the only toy that she acts this way about, and it never leaves her mouth.

Because she loved it so much and had it all the time, the pink octopus began to wear down. It eventually ripped open and Jamaica was heartbroken. Her favorite toy seemed to be no more. How would she ever recover? Her mom knew exactly what to do. She decided to perform emergency surgery on the injured pin octopus and Jamaica stayed by its side the entire time, worried, but hopeful.

You’d think this would teach Jamaica to be more careful, or set her sights on other toys, but the same thing has happened three or four times. Each time, her mother performed emergency surgery and she waits patiently until it’s done. She is elated whenever the surgery is completed and goes back to having it in her mouth 24/7.

Unfortunately, the pink octopus has so many lives and there may come a day where it gets ripped to the point of no return. Hopefully, that day doesn’t come any time soon because Jamaica is not prepared to let go of her favorite toy any time soon.
