Cat in Florida is named after Minnesota city

There’s not a day in the last 17 years that I haven’t said “Albert. Albert Lea.”
My husband and two step children had driven cross country from California to New Jersey and stopped in Albert Lea for a delicious breakfast. The surrounding area was so pretty with lakes and beautiful scenery — and of course, very friendly people. We drove around your town and it was then that I decided that if we ever got another cat, I’d name it Albert Lea.
Albert Lea was born March 21, 1991.
We moved here to northeast Florida in ’92 and Albert came with us. His favorite thing to do on the trip was to knock the A/C covers off in just about every motel we stayed at.
Well, I had a few moments tonight and thought someone might like to read about OUR Albert Lea.
