Michael is a cat whisperer who "speaks cat. Animals flock to him and spend hours on his lap because he is gentle and has a healing touch. He understands when they want to play and is happy to drag a string around on the floor for them or play tug with their favorite toy. He is a kind, compassionate, and patient caregiver. He has personally cared for our five cats and two dogs over the past twenty-five years. He gave shots for diabetes to our two elderly cats, Mitti and Bhani as well as daily IV fluids when several of our cat's kidneys began to fail. He is always the first up to feed our current dog Jean Luc his anti-anxiety meds, being sure to mix it into his slice of turkey so it won't be too bitter for him. He is great with dogs too. He knows how to walk them so they are safe from other dogs, and intervene to quiet them if they get agitated by a loud noise or other animal. He loves every animal like they were his own - watching for the special way they communicate with him and making sure they are comfortable and happy. I highly recommend Michael. Your pets would be lucky to be looked after by this sweet soul.
