That's awesome. I'm sure you will get some good stories.
Cats are worth it. : )
I'm signing up to volunteer at the local shelter so hopefully I'll be getting a lot more inspiration for my books. I might even begin fostering kittens.
I want to foster, but I live in an apartment right now, and there are limits here with pets. Ideally what I'd like to find is a shelter that can use a public relations person to help get more media attention.
