Four happy dogs — a Longhaired Dachshund, a PooPom, a Smooth Coat Dachshund and a Shiba Inu — inspired an entrepreneur (their owner Marty) to start a Telephone Pet Referral Service in 1988. Located in Sonoma, California, Breeder's Directory was the business name. In 1989 a local Burmese Kitten Breeder who advertised in the Directory (and only paid when a kitten sold) asked Marty to care for his kittens occasionally. Marty was a dog man, but business was business. He began enjoying his cat visits and fell in love with the sable colored kittens. It wasn't until 1996 that Marty traded advertising for a kitten. He drove to a Breeder's Devon Rex Cattery in Oregon. He selected a 7 week old baby, named him Bumper for the lump on his tiny head, and took him home. Bumper was an energetic and lovable Devon Rex and Marty has been a cat lover ever since. When Marty moved to Tucson, Az. in 2004, there were stray cats in his neighborhood. Within a year, Marty had spayed / neutered 12 stray cats and kittens he fed, helped nurture 4 litters and found homes for half of them. He currently (2010) feeds (and cleans up after!) 8 outdoor (2 are new strays that need fixing). His 2 indoor cats and kittens, Goodie and Baby, have access to a 5'x7' outdoor enclosure with 2 cat trees and litter box that Marty designed and created especially for them to enjoy the Arizona sunshine whenever they wish. Marty loves his kittens and cats!
