THE MEMOIR

There’s a Cat Hair in My Mask: How Cats Helped Me through Unprecedented Times

This is my story, a tale of a plague and politics, of depression and inspiration, but mostly of cats. In February 2020, the world changed forever. In April 2021, my life took on new meaning when I rescued a cat who was sentenced to die. A lot happened in between.

The story weaves the unprecedented events of those fourteen months with personal experiences and remembrances—a childhood filled with nameless fear; growing up into the hippie sixties; a happy marriage against all odds. “There were cats then too—I wouldn’t have made it through without them.”

“Cat Hair” is an ode to the power of the human-feline bond and the very real and healing presence of cats. I saved them while they saved me.
