Hi folks. Busy mom here. I work at a local fire department for my regular job. I have a love for animals though and this is a way to help and get fur baby loves. I worked at a vet for a year and was in vet tech school. Sadly my ex husband's military career held me back from finishing. I hope we can help each other. Thank you.
