When I was 6 years old, my parents surprised our family with a yellow lab puppy. As the oldest of 3 girls, I took great pride in caring for my lab - feeding him, playing with him in the backyard, taking him for walks/runs, and even picking up his poo! Having our lab for 13 beautiful years was a highlight of my childhood. As our lab aged, I helped him up and down the stairs, bringing him food and water, and prioritizing his health and happiness until the very end. Most recently, my sister got a new puppy 3 years ago and I've had a second-hand in raising him, always following my sister's training plan to the final detail. I've been blessed to have a cat (or two!) every day of my 35-year life. Currently, I have three cats: Myra, Holly, and Maow. Myra joined my family when I rescued her at 10 weeks old when I was living in Germany. At a young age, Myra developed an eating disorder. Every three days, she takes an appetite stimulator to trigger to brain to continue to eat. Holly and Maow were adopted from the Humane Society, as both have feline asthma. Holly takes an inhaler every morning through a cat aerochamber and a pill every 3 days. Maow is currently in remission. Apart from the medical support, I love spending time with my cats. It fills my heart to watch them play together, chase a laser, enjoy pets and snuggles. I will treat your fur babies like family, as if they're my own. Apart from puppies and dogs, kittens and cats, we've also owned bunnies, rats, and fish.
