One of the best things my parents gave me is a love and respect for animals. I grew up with pets since I was a year old, and since then have hardly known life without pets around. I’ve taken care of cats, dogs from sizes Shih Tzu to Saint Bernard, and taught commands to puppies, elderly rescue dogs, and a 7 year old rescue cat.

I currently have one elderly cat named Lilly who is very sweet and cuddly when she isn’t being loud and bossy.
