The Kitty Letter with

What is up my fellow felines and feline fanatics?

Summer, as you know, is coming to an end. I wish it wasn’t so, but alas, it’s time to prepare for fall.

Don’t get me wrong, fall is a great time of year! Mother and I go pumpkin shopping, we watch the leaves turn from green to gold, she dresses up as a witch and I don my black cat costume- it’s great! The only bad thing is, it gets colder. I’m not a cold kitty, I’m a “let me sprawl out in the sun until I’m a lobster,” kitty.

Now to the news! How about this lady who donated over $8 million in her cat’s name to the veterinary school at the University of California, Davis? Wow, that’s a lot of mula! Apparently, Maxine Alder passed away in 2009, but 10 years before, she took her beloved cat Du Bee to UCD’s vet school.

Du Bee eventually died, but Alder was so impressed with the care and nurture shown by the staff that she made a $1 million dollar donation to the veterinary school in 2004, and later, after her passing, Alder left the school an additional $7.6 million dollars. The money will not only aid in current companion animal cancer research and treatment developments at UCD but will also provide scholarships for future generations of students studying veterinary sciences.

It’s truly a wonderful story, and I can tell you, cats everywhere are talking about this woman’s generosity. Just think of it, maybe a cure for pet cancer could come from this donation!

Until next time, I’m Timmy the Tabby, hang loose my friends.

We’ve Been On the Prowl...

…And we’ve found an article on a cat that’s just landed a book deal! Now that’s impressive!
