Guest: Deborah Barnes

Charmaine welcomes Deborah Barnes, Author of The Chronicles of Zee & Zoey, to the show. Deborah’s new book is a stunningly-illustrated true story about the world of Zoey, a high-spirited female Bengal cat, and Zee, a loveable male Maine Coon. Deborah is comfortable on radio, can tell delightful cat stories, address feral cat issues, and can talk about how her cats helped her to overcome her life difficulties.

While Zee and Zoey are the charismatic stars of the book, Deborah introduces readers to an evolving cast of feline characters. The stories are graced by custom photos and artwork, and are backlit by the life lessons that cats share by just being cats. We are gently encouraged to wake up and enjoy each day, not as we might wish it to be, but as it is – full of mystery, beauty, and the opportunity to welcome whatever we have before us. This book may be the most inspiring and rewarding read of the year for anyone who loves cats.
