  • The cats pajamas!

    It’s so satisfying to hear other people who are like me and just love all animals, who feel as much as I do, with deep empathy and understanding. The show is filled with stories and poems and science and friendship and laughter and tears sometimes but tears that are from your heart filled up with love!
