Life brings changes, that much is certain. Recently, I relocated to Alabama, to be closer to my son. Life in the Ozarks was lovely, but I needed a bit of assistance. My son found it difficult to help me, with so many miles between us. So I packed up myself, my service dog Josie, some Burmese cats, and started a new life here in Decatur.
As management at my new residence came to know me better, they gave me encouragement to continue my hobby of 30+ years – breeding Burmese, though on a smaller scale now. Residents of this Independent Living Community are encouraged to live full, rich lives. Thus the community now includes The Brookdale 7, as we laughingly call the 7 Burmese kittens.
How long I will be physically able to raise kittens is always a question now, but there is hope for a few more years. The kittens add another level of interest for many of the residents here, and the kittens gladly do ‘people therapy’.
Come meet a Carmel Kitten here, near the Rocket City of NASA fame in Huntsville, and enjoy the many other sights to be found in this part of Alabama! Our community has a lovely 2 bedroom guest apartment for visitors.
Come find a dash of the unexpected in North Alabama! So much to see and do! Now, back to the kitties!
