I adopted my first cat at 7 years old, and the responsibilities such as feeding, grooming, and liter changes were on me. Growing up, I had 8 different cats, 2 which I still have. I've volunteered at the Bloomfield Animal Shelter, and enjoy donating to shelters such as the SPCA and Catsbury Park. At 15, I adopted a pair of chinchillas (exotics are very sensitive and require experienced animal care). I attended Montclair State University for a year with the intent to pursue vet school, for my DVM. Right now I work part time and am on a different career path as a musician but, taking care of animals is still a passion. I'm very knowledgeable about animal anatomy and behavior. I'm great with cats, dogs, and exotics (invertebrates, chinchillas, lizards, etc.) and am very excited to work with you and your furry family.
