Conrad came up with the name The One Cat when we were preparing our British cat Dexter for international air travel. He lived the jet-setting life for two days, flying under the seat in front of us from London to Amsterdam, then on to Boston. We all enjoyed the extremely meow-y car trip to Brattleboro. He got fat over the first winter due to lack of playtime (we were busy with the house) so we decided to find him a friend.

We found Piper at the our local humane society, and she is a tiny handful. She loves to play, and chases Dexter all around the house to help him shed his extra pounds. Pipes is a fan of boxes and bags, and she enjoys hanging out on her purpose-built catio watching the world (and squirrels and birds) go by.

A little note about our monsters: 2024 marks our tenth year in business, which means the kitties have, like us, aged. Dext is 16, has arthritis and is sometimes a bit confused. He is currently recovering from a serious infection/illness, but we’re hopefully over the worst of that now. (If you would like to help us with his enormous vet bills, please visit his GoFundMe site or buy gift certificates!) His visits with guests are now supervised. Piper, who still loves to play most of the time, is 13, and there are days when she prefers to keep herself to herself. (Those with cats will understand: they can be moody.) Hopefully you’ll get to meet them (if you want to!) but please understand that sometimes it won’t work.

About us

We met in Brighton, a city on the south coast of England, in 1997, and we’ve been together ever since. We married in 2012, and decided to move to the US – Pat’s a New England girl and hadn’t lived at this side of the pond for nearly 20 years. Vermont really was the only choice because of the seasons, views, politics* and warm welcome, and we chose Brattleboro because of the resilient, compassionate sense of community and the creative spirit of its inhabitants. When we opened The One Cat in 2014, we knew we didn’t want anything fancy – no hot tubs or champagne- just a friendly, comfortable space on a dowtown residential street in a vibrant neighborhood, and Clark Street fits the bill. We love our home, our neighbors, and our excellent little town, and we feel very lucky to have found such a great place and so many wonderful friends. The One Cat allows us to share some of that experience with others.

Pat, Conrad, Dexter & Piper

REGARDING THE ELECTION:

We are in mourning. Heartbroken to find that half of American voters chose hate over love, and by the wholesale betrayal of women by other women. And we are fearful for what is about to happen to the most vulnerable and targeted people and organizations in this country.

We’re heartened to see that many of the excellent people working for good have been re-elected here in Vermont and around the country, but we know we are entering dark times for millions of people and will be looking for new ways to offer support and to find hope in the days ahead.

Please give what you can to the organizations helping the people of Palestine, Ukraine, Afghanistan and other places under attack around the world.  Our favorite is MSF. Please also support organizations working for a free Palestine, including Jewish Voice for Peace.

Thank you to everyone who worked so hard during this election to try and make people understand what was/is at stake. We love you for that. Take time to rest and to spend time with the people you care about. You need and deserve some peace and kindness.

For our part, we are grateful for our brave little state and our wonderful community as we stand together to resist this horrific lurch to the right. We believe in justice, diversity, peace, love and compassion, and we look forward to welcoming our friends who’ve stayed before as well as many new friends into our home.

Pat & Conrad at the One Cat
