Peg Kehret has long been known to her readers as the author who loves animals.
In this loving memoir, she recounts the joys and challenges of her life on a small animal sanctuary.
She rescues a mother cat and her kittens who were shot with a pellet gun, and discovers a black bear on her porch, staring at her through the window. She studies the animals and birds she encounters, attempting to improve the lives of band-tail pigeons and starving deer.
Peg also relates the tragedy of her husband's sudden death and how it led to her foster home for rescued cats. Written with honesty, humor, and heart, Animals Welcome is a personal glimpse into the live of a popular author, and the philosophy by which she lives.
