Hello all!
My name is Kathryn. I live in suburban Cleveland. I have 2 cats, who are my kids. I work in early childhood education, specializing in infants at a local childcare center. I’ve also worked with preschoolers and school aged kids there. I used to be an ESL teacher in South Korea.
I love to bake. My coworkers get to be my taste testers. I enjoy coloring, and I even participate in a coloring Meet Up group. I’m a fan of all kinds of music, but country is my favorite. My kitties, Gidgette and Ivory, are my favorite models for my photography. I play around with photo editors to create what I call “Works of Art”. I’m not very good at it, but I do it anyway.
Please visit me at Mighty Kool Kat. You can find my links to social media there.

Every cat needs a good bath. Gidgette is no exception.
Gidgette loves my bed. She finds various comfy spots. This is a sampling of her latest.
I caught this beautiful sunset last week.
I went to the Bedford Reservation of the Cleveland MetroParks today. We had a few inches of snow fall overnight, so I knew it would be particularly pretty. It was a balmy 20F out this afternoon. Needless to say, I didn’t last long. I probably would have been able to stay longer if I had…
…up close and personal.
The cats got a condo for an early Christmas present. What an adventure that was. I ordered one from Amazon. I got it a few days later. When I went to put it together, it was missing half of the hardware. I called (!!)) Amazon and they said they would send a new one. They…
Well, we got a white Christmas. I love them just as much as the next person. I would have preferred a “Candy Coating”, as Dick Goddard used to say. Thankfully, this was a light snow. The last storm we had, the snow was seriously wet and heavy. It only took me a few minutes to…
