I rescue and foster cats. I currently have 12 cats (5 are FIV positive cats, 3 of whom I saved from being killed at the local County shelter). I am trying to find homes for them. I work to raise awareness and money to save all cats - big, domestic, feral, FIV positive -- ALL Cats!

I am also an Online Ambassador for Wildlife S.O.S., National Wildlife Federation, Big Cat Rescue, and Polar Bears International. I work to raise awareness and money to save all 8 bear species and big cats.

Some pictures of my babies: I'm having problems uploading my pictures. Will add them as I can! Sorry!!

About Me I am an animal lover. I have a passion for saving all animals and a heart attachment to cats, both domestic and big, and bears, all 8 species. My Everyday I read about, write about, or sculpt bears. Actually I sculpt Lions, Fu Dogs & Bears (OH MY!) I have fostered cats (usually bottle feeders, litters from feral cats, or moms with kittens) since 2000. I want to end animal cruelty in the world and save all the animals!

Wild Fact About Me In my life I've had many nicknames bestowed upon me. Some of them are: Freakie (started by nephews who couldn't pronounce Frankie) Honda Momma (when I had a Honda 450), Big F (my husband is Big O), Frankster, Bearmeister, Cat Woman
My Philosophy Everyone makes a difference; I decide what kind I make.
What Gives Me Hope Care2 and the folks who join and participate to make this a better world for us and the other species who live here. People like Kartick Satyanarayan and Geeta Seshmani of Wildlife S.O.S. saving the Dancing Bears of India (sloth bears).
If I were Mayor, I'd make the world a better place by Make animal cruelty a felony and enforce the laws; require TNR (trap-neueter-release) programs for feral cats; ban killing animals for fur; ban trophy hunting; ban animal testing; ban circus'; promote animal care education in schools; make polar bears an endangered species; stop Exxon from killing polar bears; stop Alaska from holding the Ididarod races which kills dogs; STOP CHINA from torturing and killing dogs, cats and bears for any reason! did I leave anything out?
What/who changed my life and why My husband because in 1977 when I said I was going to quit my job in 2 years and start my own business, he said,"What's happening in 2 years that's not happening right now? Except that you'll be 2 year older?" I gave a 2 week notice the next day, started my 1st business and never looked back. (That company became my 1st client.) Whenever I catch myself saying, "I'm gonna ..." instead of "I am" I hear him and I "do it now."
What Bugs Me indifference/disrespect for mother earth, indifference to animal suffering, Any one that would hurt an animal, Any one that would hurt a child, abusive people, Those who hurt others weaker than them, hypocrisy, ignorance, injustice, cruelty  
Passions bears, Cats- Big and Small, LIFE!!!, art, animals  
Inspirations good people, nature, MY HUSBAND!!  
What Scares Me hate, cruel people, apathy
