Turtle the cat from Wilsonville Stas Holodnak

In America's Northeast, between Delaware Water Gap and Lake Wallenpaupack, lies an area called the Poconos - the land of scenic mountains, fast rivers and placid lakes. It's famous for boating, white-water rafting, hiking and skiing, but there is another, less known side - animal life in the Pocono Mountains. You can spot a fox or a wild turkey from a window of your house, or you can leave the house and go horseback riding. And so one summer day in the Poconos, Stas and his children came across Turtle, a cat who is friends with horses. Here is her story.
