Hey, it’s Amy Newmark with your Chicken Soup for the Soul, and for the next few weeks we’re going to be talking about cats. We have a new book called Chicken Soup for the Soul: Me and My Cat. It’s all about the magic of sharing life with a cat. After all, they keep us company, provide so much unconditional love, share in the ups and downs of our lives, and definitely make every day an adventure. And adventure is what we’re going to talk about today, with two stories about when that very good cat gets up to some mischief and causes embarrassment to its humans.

Hey, it’s Amy Newmark with your Chicken Soup for the Soul, and today I’m going to share six ways to step outside your comfort zone, with stories from Chicken Soup for the Soul: Get Out of Your Comfort Zone.
