Olena

I am a cheerful and friendly person. I love people and animals, but there are three greatest loves - cats, dogs and children. I came to Edinburgh 3 months ago, because of the war in Ukraine. I worked as a nanny in Kyiv for 3 years. And these last years were very difficult because I could not have a pets in a rented flat. 

My whole family loves cats, and now they are all adults and live separately and have 2 cats each.

One of the first questions I asked in church in Edinburgh was: who has a cat? I will gladly go to visit them :) 

When I was a child, my friends called me a cat's mom, because I chose: either we all play with cat together, or I play with cats alone :)In my childhood and up to the age of 20, we had simple cats of various colors: gray, cream-fluffy, black and white. I liked to feed them something tasty, comb their fur, I love to fall asleep with cats and listen to their purring. From time to time I went to the veterinary clinic with the cat for examination.

Our friends left us cats for 2 months and I took good care of them, according to their instructions.

But I also like friendly dogs. I'm a little afraid of big dogs because I had a bad experience as a child. When I walk down the street, I always say hello to all the dogs.
