Aw shucks! So kind of you to say so, but mostly we're just living Sue's story as each of us brings something to our community that feeds all of us with...Synergy Soup? LOL that's an awful name but a kickass recipe! I think I prefer Stone Soup. Either way, I'm grateful to have such quality friends! ❤️💙💚

That's wonderful that you're taking such good care of your cat Milly and that you're adding reading to her therapy activities!!! I swear our cat Hawkeye loves it when we read outloud best - my guess is he thinks we're happily purring 😉🐈

Please give Milly a pat for me!! 💚💚

Maureen, I am so sorry to hear of Milly's diagnosis. It is so hard when you know the future, but thankfully, she does not! I wish you concentrated high-quality time together, full of love, play, stories, naps, purrs, and treats. ❤️😽

Sue, I have to brag a bit more about *Numpurrs* ...the woman who created the program, Karen (video of her talking about how she came up with this program is in the link you posted for the shelter), told me that the black cat in the pics, Lil Guy, was fascinated with the painting of the black cat in the book! LOL maybe he thinks they're related?! 🐈‍⬛😻

The pics of Hawkeye and Rusty are delectable! Omg their little faces are just scrumptious! 🐕🐈❤️❤️

I love that image! I can see another book coming about animals looking through their family albums.... Can you see that? BTW love the rabbits! And *everything* you create, even if I don't get a chance to comment on each one...I see them and appreciate them! 🐰🐇

Dobbins, my wire hair dachshund, and I just finished rereading Louise Penny's Three Pines series although he falls asleep on my lap after the first few pages! Loved the photos of the shelter kitties receiving love and literature!

Oh!!! I send my love to Dobbins!!! Please tell him Hawkeye and Rusty find Louise Penny's work similarly soothing and have good naps too!! 🤣😘🤗💚💚💚💚

Those little girls must have been thrilled to read an art book to the cats! The photos are just wonderful. I can see that Hawkeye is a discriminating listening connoisseur. As for Rusty, can there be any other little face in the world as adorable as his? I think not!

I love love love the pictures of kids reading to cats! The cats really seem to be enjoying it. I never read to Mehitabel (what a bad Kitty mom!) but she enjoyed watching movies with me and sitting on me when I read.
