If somebody told me yesterday that I would love a story which has Canon!Draco managing an Animal Shelter and walking around with a Jack Russel, I would have declared that person crazy, drugged, or highly dillusional. But you did pull it off. It's quite unbelievable.

Needless to say I enjoyed this story immensely.

I love Kreacher especially. Someone mentioned already how in this story both Harry and Draco represent aspects of the Fool. And whereas Draco's companion dog is of course Pyxis, I thought Kreacher, ever true to his old Black-family ways, fulfills this role for Harry. This sentence says it all: "Kreacher is a good elf. Master Malfoy is from a good, pure family. He is better than the Weasley, oh yes." Lovely Kreacher indeed ;-).
