Urgent: Cats of Long Street Need Rescue. Please see most recent post. (In general, this blog makes the most sense if you start with the first posting.) The first cat I rescued was to help my ailing father 12 years ago. My respect and appreciation for our companion animals as I see the love they have to offer has given me the strength and drive to work on their behalf. I have also become a TTouch® practitioner--a gentle, respectful approach promoting balance physically and emotionally.

The cats of West 10th
These are the cats of West 10th street. The kittens have moved on to new homes, but Ms Patches still resides there. They were rescued from the Jerey suburbs, yes, East Orange, just before the Humane Shelter of Newark was called, the shelter that serves that city, and, unfortunately a kill shelter. So I'm not sure I understand their name. But that's not the topic for now. This family was a handful for a studio apt, for sure!! But they also brought a lot of joy. What I learned from these critters was how much transformation is possible. These were an extremely fearful bunch, but over a period of 4 months, they became a really loving crew. For now, I'm just going to leave some photos...more details will follow.
I love life, learning, my practices, animals and writing. I have a passion for movement and went from dancing and singing to teaching movement, to becoming a Feldenkrais® practitioner. Being the oldest of nine children, I have always been drawn to and very comfortable with children. Animals have also been a part of my life. Because of my dog Mia's challenges I explored the TTouch training and am now a TTouch® practitioner. I feel blessed to work with children and animals and all those looking for healthy solutions to complex issues.
