I have always had dogs/cats. Right now I have Sally a 8 y.o. female Dalmatian and Summer a 2 y.o. female Basenji: both are rescues. I am going through a divorce, so my ex will keep Summer. I will be relocating to Texas later this year after I retire and plan to get a cat as a companion for Sally in our new place. I can’t imagine a life without a pet.
