I have had pets since I can remember...I currently have 6 cats...one dog...two chinchillas...and fish lol..let’s not forget the squirrels I feed by hand every day and the raccoons that visit me at night....lol I believe that if you can handle a parrot you can handle any pet ...I am very patient with animals and I have plenty of time to spend with them. i am comfortable around exotic animals also as I used to have a snake when I was younger . I have three children ..27,26 and 18 year old. They all are animal lovers. Raising children in a household with pets teaches them compassion and responsibility I would love to help those with pets who need a trustworthy person to care of their pet
