my first pet was a St. Bernard, toy poodle and a golden lab. I’ve rescued cats (in the wild) also with kittens, and taken care of the really sick animals too. I grew up with birds, Parrots, rabbits, Guinea pigs. I have spent over 10 years taking care of sick animals (Really sick) from being hit by a car or impaled by a metal bar, attacked by a wild animals..etc . I took care of each one. They all survived and all are happy in their forever homes. I love farms, with goats, horses, chickens, and ducks! It was so much Fun and very educational. Ive taken care of baby chicks, I got to watch them break out of their egg, (Best day ever!). I love all animals doesn’t matter size, shape, or age. I have a lot of compassion and empathy for all animals.
