The Team
Suzanna Juby
Suzanna manages the website, email list, and newsletter for JohannaMasko.com.
She was born and raised in the Detroit area. She lived in Houston for many years teaching high school French before returning to Detroit.
Suzanna is Johanna’s sister. They are not twins, and have no idea why their names rhyme.
She works on this website for fun.
Benedict
Benedict is nine years old. He was adopted from a local animal shelter at the age of six months. His demeanor can best be described as “crabby old man.” He enjoys “cookies,” naps, and yelling at everyone to stay off his lawn.
Lucy
Lucy is four years old. At the age of nine months, she was discovered inside the leafy canopy of a neighbor’s dwarf tree where she had been meowing loudly. She is very affectionate and loves to cuddle whether you want her to or not. Lucy is a drama queen. She enjoys “cookies,” being brushed, and playing laser tag.
Rufus
Rufus is two years old. He was busted helping himself to a catnip plant on the front porch. At the time, he was a skinny one-year-old delinquent running wild in the streets. He was coaxed inside to the basement, lured with the promise of a hot meal and a warm bed.
After several months of intensive rehab, and before being allowed to join Benny and Lucy upstairs, Rufus was required to paw print a legally-binding document stating that he understands and agrees to abide by the House Rules. Now, he’s a rebel who likes to raise Cain and get on everyone’s nerves. Because rules are for losers.
