The Cats...
Have your met our nursery cats? Cristina and Biggen are rescue cats that we adopted from Barncats Incorporated. Barncats is an all-volunteer animal welfare organization that works to provide safe relocation sites for feral cats in harm's way.
These cats love to work for food - if you have seen them you will understand. Cristina and Biggen are in charge of keeping the little rodents out of the shop - they do a rather good job at this but they are even better at convincing our customers to love on them. Biggen also poses for many pictures throughout the day. Please stop by soon and visit with Cristina and Biggen, you will be glad you did.
