For clarity, Thea Boyd is my mother. That said, I've never met anyone in my life who is more hard working than her. And very few people who care about animals as much as she does. She always tries her best to make sure any animals she owns or that are in her care are happy, comfortable, and safe. Probably the best example of this was when she worked at her local animal shelter as a second part time job. She always pushed herself to the limit making sure the animals there had clean cages, were clean themselves, and fed. Even though the manpower and resources of said shelter were extremely limited due to funding. With her also fostering many of the shelter animals for lengthy stretches of time, even though she already had quite a few pets of her own to care for. Always making sure her home was a clean, safe, and enjoyable place for all of those animals.
