Marina, I know you have always loved animals.What was your first pet and how old were you then? (I live in a small village, it was natural for me that when I was a child we had chickens, pigs and pigeons in the attic. Even now. I love animals, there is a family of swans in the garden and sparrows, wild pigeons, woodpeckers and a small number of pigeons are regular guests on the walnut tree.my dog comes into the house every morning, checks on my mother and then happily goes back to the yard to feed the chickens.)

When I was little we had two love birds. A green one (the boy) and a blue one (the girl.) Their names where Panchito and Panchita. After they passed a way (in 1991) my brother found a 4 month old kitten which we adopted and named Tigger. After hurricane Andrew a co-worker of my mom had a friend that found a 4 year old male toy poodle. We took him in and named him Andy. When I was a softmore in college we got a jack russell puppy which we named Ferguson. When they both passed a way we moved to Conneticut and adopted a mixed puppy (Jack Russell/Bull Terrior mix) which we named Zarah. Zarah is going to be 9 years old in June and has an enlarged heart condition in which she has to take 4 pills in order to stop her heart from growing in size.
We only ever had cats when I was young. My husband got me my first dog ( the infamous Skilaki) and that was all she wrote. I was hooked!
