Secrets I Learned From Ordinary House Cats: Wit and Wisdom for Life
Six kittens were born to a feral momma somewhere near Berwyn, PA in the spring of 2005. Not long after the momma moved her six kittens to a safer location, she was found dead in the road... leaving behind her 5-week old kittens. Fast forward to a rescue by a local vet technician and a pet sitter introduction to their human companion, and within an hour, the author returns home with two male kittens - a grey striped tabby and a black and white tuxedo ... later that night to be named Ziggy and Zack. Secrets I Learned From Ordinary House Cats showcases two rescued brothers, Ziggy and Zack, with their quick verses often poetic, sometimes serious and then outrageously funny, demonstrating talents that translate into valuable life skills for humans, sharing their wit and wisdom for life. According to the author, "I looked at life from a very different perspective while watching ordinary kittens change into adult cats. It took my breath away, and in the end, I decided to reveal their secrets." Ziggy, one of the featured cats in the book, has his own website: ThankGodImaFeline.com and his own Facebook page.
