The Purr-fect Road Trip for Cat Lovers in Colorado

I'm not ashamed to admit that I am a certified cat lady!

I'm also not ashamed to admit that the main reason I'm writing this story is so I can share pictures of my own cats.

Colorado, Meet My Cats: August and Cornelia

I rescued my two cats, August and Cornelia, two years ago this October. They were born underneath the stairs of a home in Iowa.

They were luckily rescued and fostered by my co-worker and his wife. Since the kittens were found under their front steps, they took it upon themselves to rescue and care for them for a few weeks.

A Cat Lady Origin Story (And a Swiftie One, Too)

Yeah, I know. These are some amazing people!

I owe them so much for bringing these two rug rats into my life. While they may tare up my furniture and break my things, they are my babies.

My old co-worker Bob and his wife Julie instantly became some of my favorite people after this. Even though we live in different states now, I try to send them pictures of Auggie and Corn as often as I can.

I was on the fence about getting pets, but the moment I looked at these two kitties I knew they would be stuck with me for life.

Initially, I was only going to take the orange cat (August) but then I learned that when you're adopting kittens, it's always better to get a second one so they're not lonely.

You might be wondering why they're named August and Cornelia. Well, if you're a certified Swiftie like I am, you are going to have to name your cats after your favorite Taylor Swift songs.

Cats in Colorado Deserve the Same Love as Dogs

After nearly two years of being a loving cat mom, I'm finally giving in and accepting the fact that I might just be a crazy cat lady.

Here in Colorado people love bringing their dogs with them everywhere! So, what's wrong with being just as enthusiastic about cats? Hmmmm?!?
