The Cat Lady lives with her obliging Cat Daddy and an ever-changing number of kitty witty boo boo babies in a Dallas suburb. She is the author of "Outing the Cat Lady: Embracing Your Feline Addiction With Style" and one or two other books. She doesn't mind your asking.

The Cat Lady has lived on both coasts and in between, but loves Texas best and forever (although Scotland runs a close second). She drives a pickup truck, likes sports but hates exercise, and is an officer in the local Kiwanis Club. No tattoos. Yet.
