Cat is the eldest “kid” in the family. She joined our family when she was 15 years old. She is a great big sister (seriously, the younger kids LOVE when she comes to visit and pretty much group tackle her). Cat and Patrick have been together for 6 years. They both work at Walgreens. They have 3 cats, 4 birds, and fluctuating amounts of fish.
One day, Cat would love to live where there are wide open spaces and not many people, where self-reliance is the way of life. Until then, she spends time researching and planning and dreaming. Seriously, Cat is a deep-well of random facts and understands systems in a really unique way.
Cat is a daughter to be proud of, a sister to have fun with, and a thinker extraordinaire! Added bonus: she can cook. For real. And she loves to cook ethnic foods!
