Chris Davis and I belong to the same group and have for a number of years; The Cat Writers’ Association. It is a group made up of published authors and novices, cat photographers, artists, cat experts, veterinarians you name it, we have it. About three years ago we started emailing each other privately and a friendship based on respect started. Yesterday, after meeting with Mike at the hospital, I drove over to meet Chris up close and purr-sonal! We had a marvelous time together.I met her 17 year old cat Molly, and I was able to just sit in the tranquility the forest around her home offered and decompress. She has an incredibly beautiful cat enclosure equipped with not only her personal artist touches, but a waterfall for the kitties to drink out of and play in! I felt like I was transported back into my childhood and I was in an incredible playhouse for kitties. It was magical.
She has squirrels, chimpmunks and bunnies that come in from the forest and feed in her back yard. I had to laugh yesterday watching one rabbit actually chase a squirrel around the base of the tree so she could eat in peace. It was very relaxing.

Then it was back home to rescue B- Dog who had to be put into her kennel for the day. She is really hurting lately and the Rimadyl isn’t helping her anymore. Even though my car is low to the ground, she can no longer jump into my car without falling. So I had to leave her home with regrets.
It was a wonderful visit, a reprieve from all that is going on at the moment and I know we will meet again soon.
It sounds like the sort of place we should all visit once in a while.
