I have had many experiences with animals, for example when i was working as a nanny for 4 years i got an experience of a life time of working with 11 cats and two dogs that had 13 different personalities :) plus two teenagers. We would go on walks and play ball. When the weather permitted we would jump in the pool and cool off :) I also got to teach the puppy to do certain commands while the owners were away weeks at a time (overnight nanny). I would show them the love there owners would show them while they were away. I have always been around animals since as i could remember. I have my very own fur child of my own and i wouldn't do anything less then what i would do with mine, plus mine likes making new friends :)
