I have a chair beside my desk that my cats take turns sitting on! I'm single and never had children of my own so they are my fur kids! I'm Also a proud and happy aunt to my niece and nephew and have been able to be available to spend time with them as much as I can and help take care of my niece and I stay with their dog and two cats when they travel!
