Meet Our Staff
Pierre, our fearless leader & founder
My brother doesn’t like to have his picture taken. This is the best we could do. Bernie was holding him and he was fighting her the whole time. I’m told we look a lot alike, so really, I could have posed for his picture and no one would know the difference.

Our Human Helpers
The Metz sisters: two humans who, just like Bernadette, live with many kitties. They have the house rules, annoying baby talk, and nap interruptions, same as Bernie, but the kitties put up with them because of the food, protection, and cuddling. They both spend a lot of time thinking about the Kitty Nation and scheming alongside Pierre.
Linda, the younger sister, is a musician and writer. We hear that she’s now a published author with her first novel … hmm, kind of like me (Tykie). We also hear that she’s a bit envious of Beau’s songwriting abilities. That’s easy to understand, when you consider Beau’s talent, although she has a few good songs of her own which you can hear at her website, lindametz.com. You’ll learn a lot more about Linda at her website. She’s also on our “Board of Advisors” and helped me (Tykie) a great deal with the writing of my first book. Ahem.
Donna, the older sister, is a fitness instructor and personal trainer. She specializes in working with older adults, and can get anyone movin’, grovin’, and feeling a whole lot better about life, no matter what their challenges or problems are. She is self-admittedly a lot like our Peaches … “loud and bossy,” I think those were her exact words. And so shy, ha ha ha ha ha! Donna is the polar opposite of “shy,” so we’re not sure why she’s hiding behind Peaches here. Donna is on our Kitty Nation “Board of Advisors” because of her visionary and brainstorming skills.
