Kevin Horton cuddles with his stuffed teddy bear named, Buddy, on his bed at his new apartment in Waterville on September 13, 2023. Moving into a new apartment after living in the same place for 25 years is scary and jarring process for Horton. Buddy helps him to calm down much like a pet would. Heâs had Buddy for 35 years. The only nights during that time that didnât have Buddy were the 5 nights he spent at the shelter on a cot.
