Thur the years raising my children we have had a mix of animals , some just followed them home from school. Along with cats, birds, guinea pigs, and turtles I have loved them all. I'm a lover of poodles! I had my first one Somon for 14 years, now we have are second one Simon which we have had for 13 years. All animals small and big I love them all. Let me love your animal too!
