This little polar bear is my best friend. She is always very sweet to me and turns me into a softy, too. I even let her steal my treats, as long as she shares human attention.

Together, we keep our neighbourhood protected from lizards and food droppings. We are the elite members of the SWAT (Sweet tailWags and Adorable Tricks) team.

But beyond that soft appearance, Mati is a tough cookie. I would NEVER dare to stand behind her and her dinner plate. .. Nobody should.
