A Cat -e

I must admit I wasn’t always a cat person. Don’t laugh, but I used to turn my nose up at cats in favor of miniature poodles. But when Nelson clawed his way into my life, my world was turned upside-down. A very unlikely catalyst (get it?) into the feline world, Nelson was a crotchety, three-legged, beast of a cat who enjoyed knocking down our Christmas tree and drooling on my shoulder in his spare time. It was love at first sight! Crazy cat lady—check.

Now, don’t get defensive. For those of you who proudly embrace your status as a “crazy cat lady”, you are keenly aware that one of your healthiest relationships is with your furry companion.
