I grew up with 2 cats in the house, so I know that having a pet is so special. After college, my roommate and best friend got Missy, the beautiful Maine Coon-looking cat in many of my photos. I loved her like she was my own child - feeding her, petting her, brushing her, taking her to get groomed, cleaning her litter, playing with her, and showing her off to everyone! I currently live with my fiance who is allergic to cats. We also live in an apartment that does not allow dogs, so needless to say we're pet-less at the moment. Fortunately, friends in the Madison area ask me to watch their cats in which I'll play with their cats, make sure they have enough food and water, clean their litter, and just spend time with them making sure they feel cared for. I have many close friends who have dogs and I've helped walking them, taking them outside, playing with them, and again, just making sure they feel cared for. Thankfully for my friends, I'm able to get these beloved animal interactions!
