I had dogs and a few cats while growing up and I alway loved watching them explore And how they make great friends. Since over the years I did not have time for pets because I would not have time for them but I really do miss having furry friends to play with. I had 4 pittbulls, a half chow chow and two cats. I had taken care of my friends boxer as well as house sit a pitt bull for a week. In addition I walked another friend labador. I had taken care of my grandmothers cat when I went by her house. If you want me to mentioned rodents, they need love too. I had gerbals and hamsters when I was a young teenager!
