Hello, I am a huge animal lover and have cats and a dog. I have fostered kittens that are healthy and with special needs. I have also watched a cat for two weeks while her owner was away. I am comfortable around all sizes of animals. My dog is hyper and a licker and jumper so I have experience with that.
