“Our dear Anna and Yoshiyuki once again were the best caretakers of Atlas that we could have ever asked for. We were on vacation abroad for over two weeks and there was not a single second when we had to worry about Atlas's well-being as we constantly and consistently got photo and video updates from Anna throughout each day. We could clearly tell Anna and Yoshiyuki loved her as if she was their own. We know Atlas already misses them and is looking forward to seeing them again. Thank you very much!”
