Growing up we always had dogs or cats around. I use to rescue cats I found in dumpsters or left on the side of the road. I currently have 2 male cats, 13 years old. They aren't too fond of dogs or I'd have one of those too! I love all animals and can't imagine a home without a pet. Animals deserve to be loved and protected by their human owners. Most of my friends have a dog or cat and I love them all like they were my own!
