Guest blogger Hannah Alexander, her cats, and her September release, THE WEDDING KISS

I’m a total animal lover, with lots of stories to tell, but I especially recall how our four rescued cats sense when I’m in pain. After I had shoulder surgery a couple of years ago, they all got onto the recliner with me–something they never do together because they get too jealous of each other–and with all of them touching me, they just laid on me and started purring. After about twenty minutes, my pain was gone, and one by one they left. I was really freaked about that!

But then I started talking to other cat lovers, and I’m not the only one who’s had that kind of experience. Our present feline residents are Data, Teddy Bear, Hobbit and Little Bit (or PJ, for Pajamas) They’re so important in our lives now that I’m writing about them, using their characters in upcoming books. I’m definitely an animal lover!
