I've lived with and helped care for dogs and cats since I was born! I love animals and feel they are our children. I recently had to put down my 13 year old mini Schnauzer, Lil Bit, who I rescued when she was just a year old - very sad times. We currently have her kitty sister, Ōjo, who is about 5 years old, that we rescued while living in Japan when she was just a few weeks old. We recently added a new kitty to the family, Wile E Kitty, and he certainly lives up to his name! I was the Vice President for P.A.W.S. (Pets Are Worth Saving), an on-base animal shelter while we were stationed in Japan and helped rescue and adopt out strays, provide medication, training, and vet visits. I currently work full-time, from home all but 2 days a month. I have a 10 month old daughter, Kylan, who loves her kitties!
