Media Mania: Cat's People by Tanya Guerrero on Audible

 



Cat's People by Tanya Guerrero

on Audible




“An uplifting tale of friendship, kindness, and connection . . . This joyful story of the unlikely friendship between five strangers and one remarkable cat is a must-read for cat lovers.”—Marianne Cronin, author of The One Hundred Years of Lenni and Margot

Núria, a single-by-choice barista with a little resentment for the “crazy cat lady” label, is a member of The Meow-Yorkers, a group in Brooklyn who takes care of the neighborhood’s stray cats. On her volunteering days, she starts finding Post-it notes left by a secret admirer in an area where her feeds her favorite stray—a black cat named Cat. Like most felines, he is both curious and observant, so of course he knows who the notes are from. Núria, however, is clueless.

Are the notes from Collin, a bestselling author and self-professed hermit with a weakness for good coffee? Are they from Lily, a fresh-out-of-high school Georgia native searching for her long-lost half sister? Are they from Omar, the beloved neighborhood mailman going through an early midlife crisis? Or are they from Bong, the grieving widower who owns Núria’s favorite bodega?

When Cat suddenly falls ill, these five strangers find themselves bonding together in their desire to care for him, and discover that chance encounters can lead to the meaningful connections they’ve all been searching for.



Just wow!

I listened to this book and it was amazing! So heartfelt and the emotions that this book makes one feel are deep, both happy and sad. 

I loved it because it starred at cat of course (cat does not talk - you just get his inner thought) but the bonds and friendships that both already existed and those that happen during the book made my heart melt.

A stray cat, 5 strangers, a terrifying event... changes 6 lives!


I loved this book so ,much and I give it 5 out of 5 drinks!

Media Mania: Kevin Hart on NETFLIX

 


Hello, today I want to talk about Kevin Hart!

His new comedy completion Funny AF is amazing! It's about time some did a comedy competition! The reward is a one hour NETFIX special!



The Netflix comedy competition series brought together rising comedians from across the country alongside a rotating panel of comedy heavyweights, including Keegan-Michael Key, Tom Segura, Kumail Nanjiani, Chelsea Handler, and Nikki Glaser.

Over the course of the season, contestants faced the realities of life as a stand-up comic, from high-pressure sets and rewrites to live performances in front of massive audiences. The competition ultimately culminated in two live episodes, where Netflix members voted in real time to help decide who would take home the title — and their own Netflix comedy special.

I LOVED THIS and laughed so hard!! the way the world is today we could use a good laugh!

 I'm hoping for a season 2, because I need more of this!

5 drinks for sure

The Rescue of a Baby Squirrel

 


Life is never boring…

Last week I was taking a nap after work because I wasn't feeling well - when my Ring camera kept going off. I picked up my phone to see what was happening outside.

The first video showed my neighbor’s son being chased by a squirrel and the next one was my Simon petting the squirrel.

Neighbors heard crying/screaming and found the little thing all alone and it followed/chased them, he knocked on our door because he thought since I have cats so of course, I’d know what to do, so Simon went to meet the baby.


Sweet baby

I got on my phone and started to make call – I was going to find a safe place for this sweet

SPCA was closed so I called the Hamburg Police and they gave me the phone number of a lady in Boston who helps squirrels. After speaking to her we were off to Boston with the baby squirrel

We got to the house to find out the baby was about 6 weeks old and a boy - Simon named him Chip! He was most likely without momma for a few days because of the shape he was in. He will get the fluids he needs and will be brought up with a few other squirrel babies. He will stay safe in the sanctuary until he and his foster brothers and sisters can be set free!

She will keep in touch with me and send me pics of Chip and siblings as they grow!


This squirrel sanctuary is on a few acres of land - most of the squirrels she releases stay right on the grounds and come to her when they want! 

Sounds like the perfect way to live!


  UPDATE:


Chip with his new brothers and sisters
He is the one in the middle of the sleeping ones  - they are a little younger than him  - the bigger two on the other side are a bit older. 



What a crazy day, I was just happy that I could help the little guy

 and get him someplace safe!
