I have always been an animal lover. I don't really have preference I love all of them. I do currently have 1 cat who is going to be 19 years old on March 31st. I have had him since he was 4 months old. most of the experience I have has just been from raising him and his brother. His brother sadly passed away a year ago. Throughout the years I've had experience dealing with animals that have food allergies and airborne allergies. of course if they've gotten older they have had arthritis and my cat who is currently alive Maverick does have slight dementia. I know how difficult it can be with older animals but I should be loved spending my time with animals and wish I could just do it all day everyday.
