I have loved animals since I was very young. My family had rabbits when I was two years old, and I helped take care of them by making sure they had food on time. When I was in primary school, I often helped walk my neighbour’s Pomeranian because I genuinely enjoyed spending time with dogs. Although my parents did not allow us to keep cats or dogs at home, my uncle’s family always had dogs, so I grew up around them. I helped care for different breeds, including a Rough Collie, a Samoyed, and a Giant Poodle. When my uncle was away, I visited the dogs, fed them, kept them company, and took them out for potty breaks. I also volunteered with local stray animal rescue groups in China. I helped support rescue work for stray cats and dogs, including taking them to the vet, helping with cleaning and basic care, and supporting adoption once they were healthy and stable. This taught me to be patient with nervous animals and to pay close attention to their behaviour and comfort. Later, I kept two Syrian hamsters, and both lived to an old age. I take pet care seriously because I believe animals deserve not only love, but also reliable, thoughtful, and responsible care.
