I fell in love with the Maine Coons and bought my first one in 2005.  To this day they still take my breath away! 

I started showing in CFA and made many wonderful new friends.   I decided to take the next step and register my cattery, Aslanspaw, which is taken from The Chronicles of Narnia's lion, Aslan.

I have been blessed to have a very supportive family.  My husband, Joe, holds down the fort when I travel to the  shows.  Thank you so very much Joe!

To my biggest fan and cheerleader, mom aka Zoom, thank you so much for allowing me to drag you out all hours of the day and night.  I love you!

I have great respect and it is a pleasure to work with Cindy Kasper of CJPaws, Hope Wester of Hopecats and Susan Kaiser of Rivercats.

Cindy Kasper will always have a huge place in my heart as a friend and for trusting Kasper to me.  Kasper is my first Regional Winner and my kitty soul mate.  Kasper was named in memory of Cindy's late husband, Joe Kasper.

I owe a huge thanks to Susan Blevins for spending countless hours mentoring me.  Thank you Susan!

And to my dear friend, Melissa Harris of Melissano Norweigan Forest Cats, thank you so much for always being there for me and teaching me how to groom!  You are the BEST!
