I’ve grown up with cats and dogs all my life and have always enjoyed meeting all of the different personalities that come with every furry face. I currently have three pets of my own, all rescued from the San Diego Humane Society on Gaines Street. Elizabeth was adopted at 8 weeks old. She is now a healthy and loving 6 year old cat who loves to steal my hair ties and “hide” them in her water dish. I was then looking for a hiking companion. As my daughters and I met all sorts of wonderful canine companions, we fell in love with Sydney. She was the only quiet dog in the kennel that day. She had a look upon her sweet face as if she’d given up on life. We learned that she was found as a stray in Balboa Park with a litter of puppies. I wasn’t informed on what happened to them, so I like to imagine that they were taken to happy homes. Though Sydney isn’t a lover of hiking, she is so patient, sweet, and continues to remain quiet. She does have a fun side and gets her zoomies out in our backyard. She’s believed to be about 13 years old. Jack is our newest addition. He was adopted also at 8 weeks old. This little guy is now 7 months (as of March 7,2022) and is fearless! He is full of curiosity and bravery and is the softest kitty I have ever pet and makes a great morning snuggler! Together, they all live in harmony and br ing joy to our lives every day they are with us.
