Originally from Northern California, Harmony moved here with her two boys and fell in love with Valley Center. She grew up on a farm raising and working with animals of all shapes and sizes, which is where her love for animals began. She and her family have 3 cats of their own and can’t imagine life without them. Being in a cat only clinic has grown not only the love she has for the feline species but also changed her view and understanding of them. Now she fosters kittens to try and give every baby a chance at their best life.
