I have grown up with pets my entire life. I have also spent years working in Latham Animal hospital taking care of boarders & strays, 10 years ago. That is where I have adopted all my fur-babies. My oldest Cleo is a 10 year old, female tabby. She loves to keep to herself & admire her surrounding in many of her favorite spots throughout the house, but sometimes she is a magnet that clings to your legs everywhere you turn. She doesn't necessarily care for the dogs all the time but on occassions she does give them some love & snuggles. Beanie, my 9 year old Male tiger kitty, is the most snuggly cat I have ever met, and I have met so many. He greets everyone that comes through the door & loves affection. He even loves snuggling with the dogs every chance he gets. I adopted my dog Lady, my 30 lbs maltipoo, right around the time I adopted Beanie when they were both babies. Even though I left the hospital to pursue different avenues, the Veterinarian I worked with previously asked me to foster a litter of cockapoo puppies for 4 months as they were not old enough to be adopted when I recieved them. I kept 2 females, Ruby, 15 lbs & Dutchess, 25lbs. They're now nearly 6 years old. I bring them all to Oakwood Vet & they're utd on shots & care. The vet is conveniently located a half miles from my home. I have a really nice sized backyard with a very secure & tall fence.
