How ‘Elvis and Me, and Our Pet Humans’ came to be.

When my youngest kid left home to college I felt a pang of uselessness and, although always on the move, felt that nothing was enough to fill my days. After feeling troubled and dissatisfied for a while, I resolved to concentrate on what I love most, drawing and painting, this time recollecting bits and pieces, morsels, about life with my growing kids.

My children grew up with two of the smartest and ‘curiousest’ felines I can think of; so keen on being constantly between our feet that, if you didn’t know better, you would think they were dogs in disguise.

Elvis and Elton have been such inherent participants to our family’s young years that I wrote stories where they, as our owners, tell about daily life with their pet humans.

MEEEOW! Our book will soon be available for the sophisticated human cub.
We’ll keep you posted.

Enjoy your Memorial Day week-end! I will be back next Tuesday with more morsels to share. Ciao, Alessandra
