You know, having raised animals all my life for 50-something years, I would say that you know, I'm fascinated by cats.

Holding this soft, small living creature in my lap this way, though, and seeing how it slept with complete trust in me, I felt a warm rush in my chest. I put my hand on the cat's chest and felt his heart beating. The pulse was faint and fast, but his heart, like mine, was ticking off the time allotted to his small body with all the restless earnestness of my own.

A lot of cats are not that social.

I've been out all over the world tranquilizing animals.

Zoo animals are ambassadors for their cousins in the wild.

Having this interest here in the Redskins is the chief hobby of my life.
