Teymaneeya's 2016 book challenge

I'm a feline behaviorist from Brooklyn.
My second year doing this and considering I spend most of my free time reading, I'm excited to continue with my frequent visits to the library :)

Feline behaviorist..... That caught my attention. Sounds fascinating!

Interesting occupation! I'm trying to break one of my kittens from suckling on me. Hoping the new toys will redirect his attention.

Wouldn't it be nice if 2017 was a year of peace and goodwill.
A year where people set aside their religious and racial differences.
A year where intolerance is given short shrift.
A year where hatred is replaced by, at the very least, respect.
A year where those in need are not looked upon as a burden but as a blessing.
A year where the commonality of man and woman rises up against those who would seek to subvert and divide.
A year without bombs, or shootings, or beheadings, or rape, or abuse, or spite.

2017.

Festive Greetings and a few wishes from Malaysia!
