I once acquired a cat whose owner had moved out next door and left her behind. One day after seeing it wobbling down the driveway between the two houses, my son and I looked at each other and, realizing its plight, said at the same time: "Get the cat food."

I get an idea for a book and either it has already been done or I can't figure out how to sustain a plot for 300 pages. I too love books with pets.

We once adopted a black kitten that walked out of a field on Halloween! The kids named it Barney (after Barnabas Collins from 'Dark Shadows.' ) Turned out, she was a Bernadette.
