Crazy about the Cat Lady

Hairdresser Dayla Jeffreys rents a booth at a high-end salon but needs another job to make ends meet. While scrolling through employment listings online, she stumbles upon what seems to be the perfect second job -- cat sitting. She likes cats, and they're such independent creatures, she probably only needs to change the food and scoop the litter box twice a day. It sounds like easy money. On the phone, Ms. Meredith sounds like a Type A workaholic, too busy to take care of her own cats and eager to hire someone else to do it for her. She asks Dayla to meet her at a posh home in an ultra-rich neighborhood to go over the details of the job. Women like Ms. Meredith are way out of Dayla's league. So she's pleased to learn Keri Meredith is an attractive, down-to-earth small business owner and cat foster mom. Keri works long hours and needs someone to check on her latest foster, a calico who's expecting kittens at any moment. Trouble is, Dayla has no experience with birthing cats or newborn kittens. But she likes Keri, and she thinks Keri might like her, too. Do the two women have more in common than cats?

Chapter 10

“I’m sure everything’s going to be fine,” Keri says. “In the wild, cats have kittens all the time without any help from humans, you know? But if you’re here and something doescome up, you’ll be able to call me and I’ll come right over. Most likely nothing’s going to happen, but this way if something doesgo wrong, we’ll be here.”

You’ll be here,Dayla amends silently. I love cats, but I don’t know squat about having kittens.

“I won’t even know when she goes into labor,” Dayla says, giving Keri a worried frown.

Keri rubs Dayla’s shoulder. “Oh, you’ll know.”

Her hand lingers on Dayla’s arm, in no hurry to move. So maybe she isinterested, after all.5
