Im a surveyor for Washoe county, and have owned at least one cat since the fall of 1984...and for a couple 3 year stints..up to four at a time. The older I get, the more I love felines...(the fuzzier the better.) If I were financially able.....I would live close to the Best Friends facility in Kanab....and spend most of my time helping them out any way I could. That corner of Utah is my favorite place in the world...(and the most beautiful for sure). Am hoping to make a difference somehow...here in the northern Nevada area....and am looking forward to summer finally arriving here...so I can get out on the water in my paddlecraft...and am hoping maybe some of you members might like to join me....I have 3 inflatable kayaks and all the gear..(even took my cat out in the kayak once...tucked in a soft pet carrier....you should have seen his head poking out....enthralled by the new vantage point... out in the middle of Silver Lake (which is my favorite alpine lake....its just about perfect....(if only it was as warm as Lahontan!)The photo is of me and the "kayaking kitty".....(Fuzzwadd Meep).....taken 7 years ago....(he was 19 when he "climbed the rainbow" on August 11, 2006......)
