Even Goats Take Catnaps: Adventures of an Unexpected Critter Sitter - Paperback

by Sue Wasserman (Author)

Who knew that goats take catnaps? Certainly not Sue Wasserman - until she was asked to pet sit a couple's goats. And then other friends and friends of friends asked her to keep their goats and donkeys and chickens and ducks in addition to dogs and cats. Thanks to a long ago experience with a friend's life and adventure-loving dog, Wasserman believes she became a softer, gentler version of herself, one that her clients' pets felt truly comfortable with. Some owners told her she shouldn't expect to see their cats or dogs, but she won each over, helping moms and dads feel comfortable knowing their "kids" were in capable, loving hands.

In Even Goats Take Catnaps: Adventures of an Unexpected Critter Sitter, Wasserman shares her sometimes funny, sometimes touching, sometimes lesson-learning experiences with her readers. As much as she believes there would be world peace if everyone had a baby goat to love, she has also learned that grownup goats cannot be completely trusted. She now knows to look closely at a "cat toy" before picking it up. She has discovered wild turkeys, are outrageously beautiful and sometimes quirky, thanks to Jake, who adopted one of her clients. Most of all, she knows that a little love can go a long way.
