On this day 14 years ago we adopted this little kitten that needed a home. Her mother was a feral barn cat and the funds to adopt her went to having the mother cat spayed, vaccinated and treated for internal/external parasites. Bella has been a wonderful addition to our family!

I like reading rock star autobios but some are just money grabs. This is one of them. Although Simmons admits to his faults, he’s still arrogant and runs down his bandmates. I skimmed the last few chapters. 📚💙 #booksky #genesimmons #kiss #autobiography
