KODA (originally Koda-the-Forest-Kitten after coming out of the woods as a tiny black ball of fluff one wintry night) was VERY glad to see me on my return from our Road Scholar adventure. Much hugging and purring. Kathy says we are kindred spirits, alter-egos, best buds, etc… Can’t argue. Here is Koda trying to settle in for his mid-morning nap in the top level of his cat tree—which has somehow grown significantly smaller over the past year. Very strange. He’ll always be that little kitten to me. I often call him Koda-bug.
