Book Excerpt
Watson's Way
Since Watson found being in a happy place a natural state, he wanted to account for all of us and, hopefully, find us happy too. It seemed to worry him. Enough so that he’d leave his warm bed every night just to make sure all was well with everyone. He’d even get up to check on his feline brothers…which often resulted in his bed being occupied by one of the cats when he returned from his rounds.
