I grew up at the countryside with a bunch of cats and some dogs. No matter where and what I was doing after, I would always almost crave for having my own pets. Sometimes I had, sometimes I couldn't. But all the time I would have contact in a way or another with both cats and dogs. I did adopt an adult great dane and had a mixed german sheperd in my tenage years and young adulthood and also had many cats along my life. i also took one course in university in animal psychology.
