Cats in the Gardens

Most Beloved

Welcome to Gardens at Effingham: Where Cats Write the Tales. My name is Most Beloved. I write the cat tales, and I especially like tattling on the garden cats. I live in the big house at Gardens at Effingham, and have the luxury of being the only indoor cat. I had a rough time as a kitten. I tell the story of how I was rescued here.

I spend my days cat napping, nibbling num-nums, and writing about all things cats and gardens. I also take photographs throughout the four seasons: spring blossoms; summer heat; falling leaves; and winter dreams. Join me for cat tales and tea in the gardens!
