Hi! I’m Kathy

A creative and cat lover from a small town in Ontario, Canada. My family jokes that the stray cats would play Survivor in our backyard (Mom was Jeff Probst) and the winner would get to come inside.

I currently live in Edmonton, Alberta where it reaches very cold temperatures and decided there’s no better place to put some time and effort into helping the kitties who need us most.
