Guest Writer: Kari Winters

Kari Winters passed away in May of 2009. She will ever be remembered by the hundreds of people whose lives were touched by her as a woman who made a difference. Kari truly made a difference to those people whose lives she touched, but even a bigger difference for the dogs and cats for whom she gave a voice. Kari will be sorely missed.

Prior to her passing, Kari Winters was an RN in the Los Angeles area and did rescue work with CA. Siamese Rescue. Kari's website can be seen at www.shelterpetsink.com.

Kari was also a professional member of Cat Writers Association. Her writings won several prestigious awards through that group. Very fitting I think, since her motto was "Changing animals' lives through writing."
