I take pride in the "crazy cat lady" title, having spent many years developing my love of felines.  As a teenager in Los Angeles, I adopted some feral kittens while my family was away, and they returned home to find we were now a cat family!  It wasn't long before all the neighborhood cats knew where they could get a good meal, and earning the trust of shy wild ones became a favorite pastime.  Since then, I've loved finding rescued cats forever homes where their only cares are getting a nice brushing or treat.

After moving to San Francisco in 2005, I volunteered at the SFSPCA for a few years, both at the holiday adoption windows and the main adoption center, helping socialize and comfort cats waiting for a forever home or living their final years under hospice care.  A career change had me looking for new opportunities outside the corporate world, and I found a new way to apply my love of cats by providing care and companionship professionally.  After working with a team of cat sitters, I started my own business to provide cat care services, Purry Creatures.

During my visits giving cats the care they need,  I am always enchanted by their unique personalities, and I try to capture their spirit in my photography.  Each picture here on the Purry Creatures website was taken by me while caring for that special feline friend.

In 2019, I adopted a beautiful ginger lady named Butterscotch, whose sweetness makes my home complete.  I look forward to meeting your own purring family members and being their friend while you're away.
