Furry Tails: Cat Tails

So, I'll admit it! I'm not a cat person. Don't get me wrong, I love cats. Got nothing against them. I've just never been the proud owner of one.

When I was a little girl, before my family moved into our house, we lived in an apartment building. You weren't allowed to have dogs in that building, so I wanted to get a kitten so badly. But my parents said no. You see, my mom is allergic to cat fur and that's why I was never allowed to have one as a child.

Because of that, I have no cat stories! I mean, my cousin had two cats when I was little. Boots and Cleopatra. My mom would sneeze every time we would go over to Tammy's house!

Cleo would hide under the bed every time company would come over and Boots was never all that friendly either. So, they are the extent of my cat experiences.

I didn't want this blog to turn into a "dog blog" only, and that's why I'm bringing in two guest bloggers this week!

Allow me to introduce my fellow KDKA Web Team producers – both of them cat owners – Sarah Kovash and Casey Shea.

To read Sarah and Casey's stories, just click on the name of their pet.

Now sit back and enjoy their "Cat Tails!"
