A true inspiration, Lauren Merryfield has been living with disabilities and blindness all of her life.  But as they say, she “keeps on keeping on,” and amazingly knows how to handle the challenges of a the world – sometimes with help, sometimes alone.

She began writing cat stories and poems since grade school and has been published in several magazines . She also wrote the book “There’s More Than One Way to Love a Cat”. In her book she tells about how she was walking around Lake Harriet in Minneapolis with her pet. She accounts how people were consistently stopping to ask if she knew her pet was smiling.

This gave her the understanding of just how much joy that pet, together with the other animals she took care of, brought to her. She began listing spiritual insights she was having by living with and observing her pets – joy, love, creativity, and gratitude.  She wondered whether other individuals were receiving spiritual messages from their animals as well, which lead to the writing of her beautiful book. Certainly a must read for cat lovers.
