I am 44 years old and this is the first testimonial I have ever written. Since I was a young girl I have always been a cat person and had the pleasure of growing up in a rural area where cats were plentiful. I have owned rescue cats as well as pure breds, and appreciate the joy and beauty a cat brings into your life.
Sadly, 18 months ago I was diagnosed with stage IV breast cancer. I had just switched careers and was in a job that I absolutely loved. I was also so worried about my future since I have a husband and two minor kids that mean everything to me.
Everyone has an idea of what they want their bucket list to look like. Many want to travel the world and eat in expensive restaurants. For me I wanted to own a British Shorthair cat. They are plump, regal and have the cutest smile! I have had an assortment of chemo, medication and surgeries. Weeks of radiation were quite difficult and this is when Alfie came into my life. My husband found an excellent breeder named Cynthia Falter at Beauty Tracks Cattery, who raised Alfie with love, attention and robust health. When I first held Alfie I could smell Cynthia’s perfume from all of the kisses she gave him.
I was afraid that Alfie would be beautiful, but standoffish, but that was definitely not the case! He cuddles, gives kisses and follows me wherever I go. Every day after radiation, he stayed by my side for hours, always keeping watch. My whole family has fallen in love, and he has bonded with each and every one of us. We have a million little nicknames for him and have a tendency to use baby talk since he is so adorable. His coat is lush and full and it feels like you’re wearing a fur coat when he sits on you. Alfie has brought so much happiness in our lives and our family will only use Beauty Tracks Cattery if we were to ever get another cat. These kitties are extremely healthy and loved! Thank you so much for bringing Alfie into our lives.
Sincerely, The Zucker family from Spirit Lake Idaho.
