I knew a lady like this in OH some years ago. No human furniture, except for 1 bed an elderly dog slept on. All doggie beds & crates fot fosters. 👍

I could see myself hanging out at Lincolnshire volunteering to take care of cats if they allowed that sort of thing. What a pleasant place that is for the kitties.

I saw a longer video sometime back, about how he had been severely depressed and taking care of a friend's chihuahua saved him. I can't find that video now, but here's a link to more info. Seems like a really great guy. He takes in lots of problem or abused chis.
