HG HNW Doctor Pepper as told to Theresa Gleason
Paws-itive Impressions

My father was a Siberian, my mother was an American Shorthair, but my human mom says I am a doctor – a cardiologist, in fact – because I can bring a healing touch to everyone’s heart. That’s why Mom calls me “Doctor Pepper.” Almost every weekend, my mom gives me a top-quality bath to get me ready for another cat show. Sometimes we drive for hours, but my mom knows I love the trips. On our way to the show, I enjoy looking out the window, peacefully taking in the landscape until I see those big concrete-and-glass trees my mom calls buildings. The sound of the engine and wind against the windows often puts me to sleep for several quick catnaps. In between catnaps, I wonder which concrete tree will be our next stop. Eventually, we arrive at wherever it is, and my mom takes me into the tree for the show. I love going into the tree because there are so many professional cat petters there who massage my back and neck. My mom finds only the best for me.

UP CLOSE AND Purr-sonal

If there is one person, or even just a name, that anyone in CFA (Cat Fancier Association) knows, it would have to be Allene Tartaglia. It might be from her involvement with most aspects of the operations of CFA in her position of executive director. Or perhaps from her deep involvement with both the CFA Annual meeting and/or the International Show. Cat Talk thought it was time to learn more about one of the most key people in CFA.
