Barley, Prince of Darkness, has been maintaining Megan's, and now Chip's, mental health since his Gotcha Day in 2017. He is our beloved cat-dog, gentle sir, and armchair enthusiast.

Marshall struck gold with Megan in 2018 when he was found in a ditch and brought to the Sedgwick County Health Department where Megan was working. He is the household's comic relief and guaranteed snuggler.

An icon, like Cher or Prince, needing just one name- Swells. Swells has been with Megan since their first days in high school. Through whatever comes and to whatever end...

Oh Nina, long have you endured some of Megan's deepest and most challenging philosophical questions... Like, "is cereal soup" and "is it the 's' or the 'c' in 'scent' that is silent"? Nina and Megan have been answering life's most difficult questions since middle school!

Little Seester! Megan's favorite problem child, J Lowe always helps Megan tease out any "hiccups" in her farfetched schemes, which sometimes just makes them that much more diabolical... Intent on solving the world's problems one day at a time, hand these two masterminds the keys and they'll take it from there- just don't ask them to do a chi-square by hand ever again 😊

Megan's former work wife from their Sedgwick County days, Megan found a kindred spirit in Diana almost instantly and told her they would be friends. It's a good thing Diana agreed (although Megan didn't give her much of a choice 😂). She loves her guts...

If it weren't for Jordan, Megan's most fashionable friend, she'd live her life in her Stitch onesie- and he'd love her just the same. Jordan and Megan met studying public health at Saint Louis University and she still bothers him regularly for fashion and general life advice.
