"My husband says to me, 'You don't even have to do the five mile walk this morning. You were on your feet all day long with the foster kittens.' So yes, I guess I'm holding kittens and leaning over for litter boxes, scooping poop all day."
Said Howard Stern's wife Beth, quoted in a very puffy puff piece at Hamptons.com, where I clicked through to from "Fans outraged by Howard Stern’s summer off after $500M Sirius XM deal."
Imagine having that much wealth and spending your time so deeply involved in cat shit?
It made me think of this video I saw the other day of Curtis Sliwa, the GOP candidate for mayor of New York:
No one but the cat people can fathom the mysteries of the cat people.

I follow Beth Stern on IG, solely for the cats she fosters. Her high profile and wealth give her the ability to foster and adopt out a tremendous number of cats. She’s saved countless kitties. Just this week, she’s brought in a group rescued from an abusive situation. I think she has a wing in her home(s) dedicated to fosters, and I imagine she helps with vet care as needed.
I don’t consider her a crazy cat lady; she’s just someone with means whose found a calling in working on cat rescue. I don’t know how many she has at any given time, and she likely has help. But a lot of animals have homes and families because of her. Whatever she’s doing, I hope she continues.
