I have had cats as far back as childhood. I love them and have now 2 of my own (ages 20 and 7); at one time, I had 4 when I lived in the country. I have also done volunteer work for cats. I have had dogs for over 35 yrs.; at present, I have a Shih Tzu 11 yrs. old. I also feed a stray cat every night. If I could, I would own my own rescue farm for animals. I love all animals.
