Kiva Rudd
Kiva began working at Animal Haven six months ago. She was studying Cognitive Science at McGill University but she did not feel the same passion she felt for her pets. She was the only person she knew that brought a cat to college with her. Once she decided to switch to Veterinary Sciences she felt a huge weight lift off of her shoulders. She actually felt excited about all the school she has left. She is currently enrolled in San Jaun College's Veterinary Technology Program. After she receives her Bachelor's Degree she would like to apply for Vet school. Kiva lives in Aztec with her mother, a cranky siamese named Scout, and her puppy Bear, a border collie cross she adopted from the Farmington Animal Shelter before she started at Animal Haven in September. Bear has was too much energy for Kiva but they mangae it by running almost everyday and playing a lot of fetch.
