* In my spare time (lol!), I love to garden, travel, anything horse-related, and spending time with husband (Steve) and the little cat factory we ended up adopting during Covid — no worries; we finally caught mama after nearly two years (everyone else is ‘fixed’) so the little family ended up at nine total. They are sweet and kind to each other — we’ve learned more about cat culture than we ever thought imaginable and believe it or not — there are some benefits to having little cat colony on the property.
