I have been a pet owner of dogs and cats all my life. Right now I have a Boxer named Stella and a cat named Sylvia.
Between me and my 2 adult children, we own 4 dogs and 2 cats. So basically my grand kids have 4 legs.
So like a good Grammy I am their built-in pet sitter!
There is no love like the love our animals give to us!
