Book Nook - Cats in Nine Tales

 Animals are Meredith’s first love, and poetry and storytelling simply run in her family. So, after creating Seven Songs for Seven Dogs and Twelve Dogs A-Howling, she decided it was time to pay homage to the cats in her life with Cats in Nine Tales. Veterinary hospitals typically have at least one hospital cat. These felines fill an important niche in clinic life, and Meredith’s clinic is no exception. From barn cats and clinic cats to royal cats and everything in between, here she pays them tribute with nine purr-fect poems in Cats in Nine Tails—er—Tales!

Born and raised in the Washington, DC, metropolitan area, Meredith finished high school in Knoxville, Tennessee, and attended college and veterinary school at the University of Tennessee. She has practiced veterinary medicine in Knoxville, Northern Virginia and has owned and operated a small-animal veterinary clinic in Williamsburg, Virginia, since 1988.
