It seems my life has always been about cats, even at a time when it was all about dolphins, and then again when it was all about pack horses and pack mules.  We've joked that my money goes toward buying many cats their pajamas (providing good homes, spaying strays, etc).  Even as I sit here on this rainy February day working on this website,
 I have a stunning Blue-eyed Black & Grey kitty on my lap (who, by the way, is soaking from getting caught in a downpour while running up from the barn), and there is a sweet little Orange and White kitty fast asleep high up in the cat tree house that is built right in the middle of my kitchen. 
My heart would be remiss if I failed to mentioned the tiny green-eyed jet black Kitty from the Florida Keys and the gorgeous sweet Calico found at the Ranger Station who captured my heart and were here for the start of
The Kat's Pajamas.
As far as my inspirations, my background is in Marine Biology where I have had the fortune of working with many dolphins and whales as a trainer, as a scientific diver and as an advocate.  I have also had the fortune to work, for many years, as a Wilderness Ranger backpacking around the High Country in the Cascade Mountains of Oregon.  Naturally all of these experiences inspire & contribute to color schemes.  I am currently teaching about many of the ecosystems I have learned about.
  At the same time my creative outlet is making jewelry.  I dream about it!
