A Little About Me!
I have lived in South Carolina most of my life, but some of you may know me from the west coast, where I spent 4 lovely years in San Diego where I was doing my residency program. I was a doctor for the United States Navy for the last eight years but am now FREE!! I'm a University of South Carolina graduate, having spent from 1990-1998 there for both undergrad and medical school.
I've been a breeder of Scottish folds since 1994 and feel I know just about all there is to know about cats and showing!! I have a fairly large home with lots of room to love my cats. My cats love to cuddle with me on a cold night in front of the fire and some could say they live the lap of luxury! My father tells me he would like to be a cat of mine if he comes back in another life!!
I have some of the best friends I could ever hope to have and have great relationships with other breeders of Scottish folds (no small feat!). My husband Chris works as a teacher and researcher of the human brain at the University of South Carolina and the Medical University of South Carolina.
I have many, many hobbies, other than my animals. I enjoy creating great cuisine and learning about wines from all over the world. I travel a lot for cat shows, holidays and hobbies (for example I attended a cooking class at the Culinary Institute of America in NY--what fun!). I enjoy landscaping and home improvement. I've been deep into the study of music in college (which paid for undergraduate degree with scholarships), mainly opera and piano and still spout music occasionally around the house or sit down at my piano.
All in all, I have a very full and glorious life. If I could create the "perfect life" for me, it would be the one I have!
Best to you and yours, Marilee
