Guest Blog Post: “A Happy Tail,” in Sue Clancy’s exact words

The artwork and stories of Sue Clancy are totally smile enducing. Here’s what she submitted, dear HBT reader, so you can smile too…

My mentor and adopted dad, Dr. Bob Hoke, had an Abyssinian cat named Missy. One day we were sitting and talking with our drinks, papers, and books strewn about the dining room table. When Missy jumped up and stalked through the middle of the table, her tail swishing left to right, we quickly grabbed our glasses; tall stemware filled to the brim with red wine.

“That tail reminds me of a story…,” Bob said, and proceeded to tell me, “A Happy Tail.”

This story, along with others, is included in this book…
