National adopt a shelter pet day!

We interrupt this blog about Tyler to bring you an important message!

Today is national adopt a shelter pet day!  I couldn't let it go by without sharing a brief thought or two.  Tyler was, as you already know, a shelter cat.  Adopting Tyler from Littler Shelter was the single best decision I have made in my life.  It will always remain that way.

He was a great cat, in every possible way.  Giving him a home was the most rewarding experience of my life, and he gave me far more than I ever gave him.

He gave me unconditional love.

THOUSANDS of cats and dogs are waiting at your local shelter now.  All they want is a home.  All they want is love.

They deserve the same chance that Tyler got.

ADOPT!

I remember the real bagels and the real bialys.  Do you all know what a bialy is? The Barclays Center?  Nope, it was a parking lot at the time. What was I doing there you might ask?  At the time I still thought I could make a career out of working in Museums.  The truth ...

  That’s right, dear readers….. I started a podcast about cats! Shelter cats. Stray cats. Feral cats. Colony cats. My cats. Your cats. Rescue cats! Cats! Noticing a theme here? An avid podcast listener of a variety of topics, I didn’t realize how ridiculously easy, and low budget in terms of start-up costs, to actually get one off the ground. Thank you Spotify podcaster app! So, please follow my brand new, low-budget, strictly amateur  Shelter Cats  podcast. Shelter Cats Podcast I’ll be posting a new episode every  Sunday,  although I may get that out earlier depending on how I like the results. Episode 1 is already live!
