We adopted Tinker from PAWS in Seattle when she was 6 years old. My young son fell in love with her from the moment their eyes met. I was a little reluctant because of her age and it was noted that she didn't like young children, noise or other pets. Needless to say, we brought her home and she became a cherished and loyal family member for the next 11 years. She was affectionately referred to as Queen B as she did rule to roost. We miss her dear sweet presence in our lives now and always.
