Dear Bookstore Friends,
Those of you who read my monthly letters regularly know that I spend as much time as I can either reading or gardening. November was filled with both passions. My cat, Oliver, was thrilled. He loves sitting on my lap while I read or chases butterflies in the yard while I plant and prune. One of our employees rescued him when he was a few weeks old and begged us to give him a good home. Wasn’t hard to convince us to take in this adorable frisky kitten and he has grown over these five years into quite the handsome cat and become a joyful part of our lives. He has managed to ‘train’ the two adults in our house to be ‘cat slaves’ who heed his beck and call. He herds us to his dish in the morning, refuses to use his cat door when we’re nearby and climbs over us to get to his favorite sleeping spot–the top of the 3-tiered in/out box above the computer in our office. And, if anyone reading this note would like to give a home to another ‘rescued’ kitty, our PR person, Brandon, has a sweet gray cat that has been ‘fixed’ and needs a good home this Christmas.
