Hi, my name is Karen (yes, another Karen LOL) and I am 27 years old, happily married and living in the Bay Area, California. Actually, more specifically in Gilroy, Ca the garlic capitol! In fact, this weekend is the garlic festival! Yum!
I have have always loved animals. They are my passion. I graduated from Purdue University with a computer technology degree and came to CA to work for a startup e-commerce company. I was recently laid off, so lately I've been spending a lot of time at my local animal shelter (San Martin animal shelter). Volunteering there has been a great and rewarding experience. Besides animals, I love step aerobics and yoga. I love to read and have to read every night before I go to sleep. I also like doing web design and help out with our shelter website. I am also going to do a website for a winery soon.

I am owned by 3 cats: Marius, who is my "heart cat", is a 6 year old DSH white with green eyes. He loves feet and shoes!
Scooter is my hubby's DSH tuxie who is also 6 years old. He loves to play with fluffy balls and jingle/catnip balls. Sergei is my newest family member. He is a DMH orange tabby who is just a real love. The vet estimated him to be 2 years old, but I think he is much younger than that. He is still very kittenish in his behavior and he has a little wiry kitten body that has yet to fill in. He just loves to love and play! He and Marius have really bonded.

I am currently looking for a job. Does anyone need marketing people in the Bay Area?? LOL

**hugs**
Karen
