To all my friends & family who know how I feel about my cats:

I had to put Ayla, Princess of Siam & ALL the Universe, down this weekend.  Her tumor had grown so large that it interfered with her eating & bathing.  She had a good life.  Her litter was dumped in the woods behind my apartment in 1998.  She was a joyful little thing and even though I wasn’t sure I wanted 3 cats, I took her in.  In the end she had all the tuna & gushy foods she could want (and in typical Siamese fashion, she demanded more!).  Big bro was kind enough to take us to the vet.  It was good to have him there to lessen the loneliness while waiting for the vet.  He got a bit choked up. After it was over, we handed the vet a kleenex because he even had a tear in his eye!  And so I’m down to 2 cats.  No “replacement” for Ayla as she was irreplaceable!

Hello friends, family and colleagues past and present.

As many of you know, I published a book in October with Publish America. For those of you who don’t know, the book is called ‘Niser’s Nine and is about a cat who knew me as her Mom from 1974 to 1994.  ‘Niser was a mischievous little girl who brought to life the myth that a cat has nine lives. But, the book is as much about my life at that time as it is about hers.

My publisher is in the process of making my book a bestseller on Amazon. That will involve having one day that is the big push for bestseller status, where they will make my book available for a reduced price, probably in e-book format. I know that many of you have already bought the book, and for that I am extremely grateful.

Now I have a couple of favors to ask. Please go to www.facebook.com/PublishAmerica and ”like” Publish America. You will then get updates from them about when “my day on Amazon” will be. Then, to help make my day a success, please forward that information to all the animal lovers in your address book, or anyone you think would enjoy a story like this.

With great appreciation,

Barb

P.S.–My next endeavor, “Astiroo and Miha Too” is already in the works!
