How would you know you were beautiful if nobody told you you’re beautiful? No Tabby’s Place cat will ever be forced to confront this question.
We all know the saying – “Cats will be cats.” No matter how much we tell them they’re not starving when dinner is five minutes late or that they cannot have more treats for the twelfth time today, cats will be cats.
We weep and rage when the bitter comes for the sweet. But we don’t understand when the sweet comes from the bitter.
If Tabby’s Place could wrest control of the universe, our first decree would be the dismantling of feline leukemia virus (FeLV). FeLV is no friend of ours. It is feared for a reason.
