Kathy and JoAnne have always treated me like family. Some of the happiest times of my life have been spent at Preppy Pet, which is like a second home to me. Kathy and I had such wonderful conversations about current events (and of course, dogs and cats). Her wit and intelligence made me enjoy and look forward to our conversations every day at work. She was a true animal lover, and there are countless dogs and cats out there who are all the better for having met her.

We will always miss Kathy.

Love,
Elizabeth and Hamlet

We are so very sorry for your loss of Kathy. She will be missed by many. I know she probably already has a lap full of furry babies that crossed that rainbow bridge.
