Buster, Cat; Kat, Human
Staff Reporter of BusterWheres
Buster was a cat with a 23 year background in hanging out and being imminently catlike.
Kat Caverly was a human being with a background in behavioral psychology and over 23 years
of experience in commercial photography.
The year was 1996, but the collaboration of these two professionals began in July if 1982,
when Kat noticed Buster outside of the loft building where she had a studio in Manhattan.
Buster was just hanging out, anticipating Kat's emergence from her building. The plan: make himself
known to Kat ever so subtly. His ultimate goal: force Kat to initiate the relationship.
Busters's feline whiles were too much for a mere human to ignore - Kat indeed made the initial approach. She stooped down, knee bent upon meeting Buster. He made his move - his brutish
approach, merely intended to be a stroke of sincerity on Kat's thigh, knocked Kat off her feet, literally!
Buster proved to provide Kat with a bottomless supply of inspiration and friendship for over 14 years, and thanks to Kat's relationship with Recycled Paper Greetings, the third largest greeting card company in the Universe, his mug was seen on several of Kat's best selling paper cards over the years.
Buster became a star loved and sought after for many years. Buster just attracted attention!
Kat has many stories about living with Buster, who went to heaven in 1997 and she likes to say that Buster was by far her very best friend. Buster adored Kat; maybe because she saved him that day. Maybe because they knew each other in a previous life. ??
Everyone should have at least one friend like Buster in their lifetime. Priceless.
