We got these pictures and story through a friend’s email. We think you’ll enjoy them…
Kitty is a very adventurous cat. She is the beloved pet of American travelers, Peter and Marcia Simmons, who are hiking from Miami , Florida to Ushuaia in Argentina . They are currently in Colombia . Kitty is often seen resting in Peter’s backpack as they travel. They have set up a little umbrella on the backpack to shade Kitty from the sun.
Kitty is enjoying the trip as much as her owners. She often climbs on Peter’s shoulder to get a better view of the new scenery. She is not at all shy about meeting new people. If there was an award for the most adventurous cat, Kitty would be the purr-fect candidate.
Kitty is definitely Daddy’s girl…
Love love love love it!!!!
My 84 year old sharper than a tack uncle who helps run an animal shelter in Georgia, sent me your blog. I can't tell you enough how awesome and cool this is. I'll enjoy reading it and wish you three all the best on your journey.
By the way, when in Argentina and if you can, check out the Los Alerces national park (trees the size of our Redwoods. There's a cool town nearby called El Bolson – the hippy town of Argentina)
