I did not know you were from Philly! And I did not know you are a dental technician. But I DO know those sweet kitties!

Hi! My name is Donna and I live in Connecticut. I was born and raised here. I just turned 53 and am a freelance writer.

I am owned by 4 goofballs with 4 legs All have fur 'cept for one.

This is Shortiegirl. She is going to be 7 years old and was rescued from a bad breeder who kept her in a cage for the first year of her life. Until I met her at a cat show, she had never had any human or feline contact and was VERY withdrawn. She came down with pyometria and had to be spayed. Since her breeder had no use for her anymore, because she couldn't have babies, she was going to have her euthanized. I took her. It was love at first sight.

Next is Mollie Rose, aka the Divine Miss "M", Rosie, Posie, etc. She is 12 years old and was my very first cat. She was born on the farm of the Bill Wilson House (Bill W as he is referred to was the co-founder of AA).

This blue-eyed beauty is Maya Linn (named after the woman who designed the Vietnam Wall). Although Mollie Rose is the Matriarch of the clan, Maya Linn is the Alpha female of the crew. She was rescued from the San Juan in Puerto Rico along with her mama and brother. She's an award winning cat in the Household Pet division.

And last, but CERTAINLY not least is MooShoo. He is a hairless (Sphynx) cat who was rescued from yet another bad breeder, who failed to treat a herpes virus in his eyes, causing scar tissue to form over his corneas, which rendered him to be almost completely blind. He was rescued along with 4 other littermates all with herpes in their eyes. MooShoo and one other littermate, Pixel, are the only two that survived. All the other Sphynxes died from FIP. MooShoo is such a cool cat. He keeps me warm at night.

This is RB Casey (Bubba Dude). He was the love of my life and I miss him everyday of my life.
