Aww Saturday.

Well today was a busy day, I had to go out of town for the day, and my poor little baqbies where just so sad. How do I know that they looked sad. Alright nso I am making this up, but they are always so having to see me when I get home. But then again it maybe because I always give them fresh food and water when I get home, and they come before anything else. Like children they require my attention upon arriving home. I like to feel needed otherwise why would I have so many freaking cats. Yes of course I am a crazy cat lady, and darn proud of it. I do rather like to think of myself as a person who rescued my furry babies from a fate we will not discuss. This is especially something I think about when theyn are makiing me crazy or showing me love, and yes I do think that they nlove me in their own way and are a great comfort when I have had a long day. Well it's late here and I've had a long day and I see someone wants to snuggle so off I go to dream land, with a furry baby to snuggle with. Happy Cats, Tired Mom. Till next time.

Hey I'm Looking at You!!!!!

It never fails someone is always looking at me. I cannot catch a break. In the shower, when I'm sleeping, watching television, and when I am on the computer or just plain relaxing, someone is always spying on me and stalking me. Thankfully it is only cats otherwise I would have to get a restraining order. Wait that, no never mind. When you have children your time is never your own, kinda like that with cats. Why do I have so many cats, I should know better. Cat's are like children, or sometimes more demanding. Today they are being semi good, not great but okay. The wonders of Kitty Prozac. It's really just catnip. Makes my day when they get mellow and Her Highness is a bit more pleasant. Sophia is laying on the floor in her own world, the rest are just chillin out. So I'm making Potato Salad and catching up on some laundry. I have a busy weekend, but will check in on Saturday to be sure. So if you feel like your being watched, it may just be because you have Cats or Kids and not the other type. And yes if you have children get a lock for the bathroom door. Happy Cats.

Be pet smart, keep them safe.

Alright as you know I sometimes rant about things I see, so here goes. It is that time of year folks. Hot cars are not a place for your pets. Just like your children, don't lock your pets in a closed car ever. The temps can skyrocket to horrible high temps in a matter of minutes and fry your pet. If you must travel with a pet make sure that you put all safety measures in place. Water dishes that travel, and leave a window cracked open, and don't be gone eating dinner in a restaurant somewhere, it still gets to hot in your car. I hope you can hear me because things like this make me crazy, and there is no amount of Prozac or high blood pressure meds that can help the anger I feel when I see people leaving animals in their car. Last summer when we had temps at 101 I was in a store walked out and saw a car windows shut all the way and a dog in the car. Well let me tell you I walked into 3 stores and in a very loud voice announced that whoever left their dog in the car needed to get out to the car and go home before the dog died from heat stroke. I also in a really loud voice announced that I would be calling animal control if they didn't go to their car immediately. It worked and all I could think was that the low life's that came out of the store didn't deserve the beautiful dog they left in the car. So please think before you take Fido or FiFi for a ride, it may be their last if you are careless. Sorry to be so rude but if you are a responsible pet parent and care about your little ones, you understand. Your pet Thanks you and I Thank you.

Nirvana

I believe that the definition of the word Nirvana, is something like total bliss, a state of pure relaxation, you know yoga, total disconnect from the world. Okay if I don't have any of that right it's okay. It's my blog and I can tell you that Nirvana is my cats high on catnip, as you can see by the picture of Phantom. Catnip has different effects on different cats. Some cats like it, some don't. Some prefer fresh catnip, some like the dried version. My cats like catnip any ole way I serve it. I grow catnip as does my neighbor. So at our house the supply is plentiful. For some cats they get crazy and run around like their butts are on fire, or they lay down and mellow out totally man. Phantom just lays down and gets all comfortable with the floor and chills out so totally it is rather weird. Jekyll goes to his scratching post and curls around it and goes to town clawing it. Jezz is much more pleasant to be around and likes everyone a little bit more. not much but some. So today is a good day. Jezz visited the great outdoors everyone got fresh homegrown catnip[ and we are all Happy, happy, happy. Happy Momma Cat.

Who Me? What did I do.

That utter look of surprise, like really I wasn't doing any thing. Who me you must have me mistaken for some other cat. Wasn't me, didn't do it, not even in the room. This is the cat response to whatever it may be. Not me no way no how. Didn't you just see Jinx run thru here, I know it was her, wait, maybe it was Phantom. No darn it he's sleeping on the back of the couch, okay it was Jekyll, wait wait he's in the closet again. Darn it all okay it was me, I was just trying to sneak up on that bowl of ice cream you have there in your paw. Please please can I have some. Please, I'll be good, I won't meow to go out. Oh Oh the door is opening see ya later, drat foiled by the bearded one, alright I'm ready for that ice cream now. Hey where did you go? Hmm alright it was me. Can you get more ice cream? Unhappy Jezz. Happy Mom.

By the light of the moom.

I am not sure what day the full moon fell on but I am sure that not only does it effect the tides and humans, it sure the heck effects my cats. Jezz wants to go out side every time the door is open. Jinx has been running around every day like she is on fire, tail full bloom, and it gets huge. Sophia is just mean, and the boy cats want attention all of the time. I am wore out from all of this. I need a me day. I will just be glad to go back to work. I have so much going on that I am ready to run thru the house like I'm on fire. Where is that Prozac when you need it. Maybe I should practice yoga or something, whatever works right? Today I took three of the cats outside. Jezz can go out without a leash, but not Jinx or Jekyll. Jekyll would not go on the grass I took him and put him in the grass and he turned tail an ran right back on the deck. There he proceeded to tangle himself up in the leash and just a I untangle him he does it again. I give up. He did enjoy himself. Jinx likes to travel at light speed thru the grass and loves to crawl low to the ground like she is on a recon mission, who knows. Sophia will have nothing to do with outside nothing, it is like too big for her comfort. I tried one time and got clawed for my efforts. Phantom who knows, he never begs to go out but likes to sit in the open window. Most of the time he is pretty calm, but I do believe when the full moon is near or has just passed, everyone is crazier around here. Happy Cats.

Chillin, or how Jinx hangs out.

Jinx knows how to chill. She has it down to a science. This girl can make a comfortable spot any where she is, unless of course it is nail cutting day. I have seen her in weird places. Take for instance the top of my speaker, why it's not on and it's not warm. She has been found on top of the Directtv box, especially when it's on she loves to lay on that. I know if I ever cancel Directtv they will wonder why the box is full of cat hair. It is what it is. Jinx is also a master at hiding. If she chooses not to be found, found she is not. I have searched the house for her before and never found her until I shake a treat bag or can of chow. Then I am not even sure where she came from. I have even found her inside the couch. Bad girl made a hole in the lining of a couch that I use to have, granted it already had a tear in the lining, but what's a girl to do when you are given second hand stuff. Okay I could have fixed it. I guess what I am really trying to say is, that I never leave the house until I do a head count and make sure she is somewhere I can see her. Locked that poor cat in the closet one day when I went to work. Now yes I do check the closet, but she had crawled into a large shopping bag I had on the floor. Didn't see her. Well of course she made a mess, my fault. So you see a cat can go where no man has gone before, especially if it is cozy, warm and a good hidey hole from the rat race. Wow, I want to go there. Jinx has even been found curled up in a basket I have on top of a kitchen cabinet. Now that was one place I never thought to look, I figured someone let her out and I was searching everywhere for her. I was in a panic, my poor baby outside, and we have very large hawks in our area, I just knew one swooped down and grabbed her. Oh Jinx where are you, she was found in the basket. And this was only after searching for an hour in a total panic. So take a head count watch the doors, and check the closet. Jinx now where did you go? That cat! Happy Cat.

Nailed It! Or Sophia has sharp claws. Ouch.

Cutting cat claws is my daughter in laws job. I am terrified to cut the cats nails, I am always afraid that I will cut them to short and it can cause pain for the cats. She is very good natured about it and I appreciate it. So when she was over on Saturday she did the cats nails, but as we had a lot going on the cats where a bit freaky. I had been gone for the day, and they really hate that. Well on this day Sophia decided that she really didn't want her nails cut and high tailed it under a bed. One of course that no one can reach her easily. So I decided that she could be left alone for a few days. Before she high tailed it under the bed, I received the scratching of my life. Now when you receive a cat scratch you need to take care of it immediately. That means hot water soap and peroxide. Band aids if needed. So when my Daughter in law came today, she told me she would call from the driveway and to get Sophia, and I told her just to walk in and not knock. Well the minute Sophia heard someone coming up the steps she tried to claw me to death and almost managed to do just that. I know overkill on the description, but dang she got my wrist and my chest. So now I need to wear a turtleneck or have people ask all day tomorrow who attacked me, and really I don't have time for all that. And she had to be tricked from under the bed. Sophia, Sophia, Sophia, you are such a little mean girl lately. I just am not sure what she has going on lately. Loving one minute and crabby cakes the next. Well the real moral of the story really is if you do get cat scratched please remember that you need to take care of it immediately, and if it was very serious you should also check the cats claws for blood. I know gory thought but better to be safe than sorry. I am fine, Sophia has shorter claws, and wow it's going to be really warm here tomorrow, so really no turtleneck, maybe a little makeup, or just deal with what happen to you questions. Happy Cat.

I wish I may I wish I might.

Have my wish come true tonight. I want to go outside so bad, and these people who do my bidding will not open the dang door. I don't see why not I just want to roll around in the yard, and chase butterflies, and eat the grass. I like grass. But no they will not let me out. Something about I can't be trusted outside by myself. Really I won't go to far, besides I know who feeds me. Really I won't go to far. Just let me OUT NOW. Why won't anyone listen to me? I sit by this door just waiting, and waiting for someone to hear me meow and see me look forlorn, I WANT TO GO OUTSIDE NOW. Maybe if I paw my mom enough she will just open the door and let me out. Oh wait the boy child will be home pretty soon, he'll let me out. He's not to bright. He never pays attention when he opens the door, then I can just scoot right out and nobody will be the wiser. HEHEHE. Okay I will just sit here a little to the right of the door, right here where he can't see me, okay that's good. Now I will wait. Oh I hear him he's coming up the driveway, up the steps, almost, almost. I hear freedom. Drat mom be quite, oh crap foiled again. Not so Happy Cat.

Just how did you manage this.

Seriously how did you get in this box? It must of been quite a feat. I know you jumped off the sewing machine cabinet and into the box. Just how did you purpose to get out of this box. I bought a new vacuum and left the box next to my sewing machine. I never thought Jekyll would jump into it. And the box is quite deep. I heard a noise but figured one of the little darlings was jumping off the table, and had hit the box on the way down. Nope. After I heard something akin to someone getting attacked I decided I had better investagate and find out who, what, where and the why of it all. Jekyll in the box and Jinx on the sewing machine swatting at the big thing in the box, which of course was Jekyll trying to get out of the box. This was not going to happen. Of course this was the prime photo oppurtunity for me. Sorry Jekyll. I of course had to rescue the big dope. I slowly tipped the box on it's side and he was rattling around trying to stay upright, so big cat, tall box tipping over is not Jekyll's idea of fun. I thought it was extreamely funny. I really don't think he learned a lesson as I am sure if the oppurtunity arose again he would surly jump in the box again. Happy Cat.

Plastic Man, or thats Jekyll.

Jekyll is plastic man, if it's plastic he wants to chew on it, if it's semi plastic he wants to chew on it. If is food he chews on it, the cat thinks that he is a goat. Yes a goat. The fact of matter is he is not one, and plastic is very dangerous to cats or any other animal. It can cause airway obstructions, if it makes it to the stomach then you have all sort of other problems. So rule of thumb at our house all plastic of any kind is put away throw away, or whatever it takes to remove it from Jekyll's reach. Jekyll is an odd one as it is, he is big and clunky most of the time. When he hits the floor from the couch or the bed it is a big thump. He is also very stealthy. How I really haven't figured that one out yet. In the morning he can be in my face before I even know it, and has on occasion scared me. He is also a very good snuggle cat, and likes to be petted. He loves a good old fashion rub down and to be brushed. I still find him to be an odd one though. He loves the smallest places, and of course he likes a box to sleep in. Lately the poor guy has been beaten up on by Sophia. Don't know what has gotten into her. She is being a real scamp and has been a big ole pest. Today was my day to catch up on housework and I must say I was ready to throw her out the door. She chased Jekyll all over under my feet, into the closet I was cleaning out and then chased him on to the bed, and back off of it. Well he got some exercise anyway. Well it's dinner time and then I'm off to brush cats out, they are really shedding lately. Winter fur everywhere. Gotta love that, I take cats to work everyday. Their fur anyway. Happy Cats.

Cat Crazy. As in, what the heck.

Some days you just know that the minute you walk in the door, all hell is going to break loose. Today of all days is my day. I have been so busy with various things and work, I am exhausted. But do those nutty cats care? NO. Jinx is racing through the house, why, I haven't the foggiest idea. She is racing from room to room her tail is three times the size it should be, and then Jekyll starts in. He runs after her and there she goes up on top of the cupboard. Jekyll can't follow her up there he's to fat. So because he wants to play with her I guess, he is now walking around the house meowing his head off. I can't get that lucky. Phantom for some reason is chewing up the bag of potatoes. Good grief, stop already. Now Sophia has to check out the bag of potatoes, really guys stop, I said stop. Not only are the cat's on melt down mode, I keep getting calls from work. I need to loan out an employee and so I have been on the phone back and forth. Gee, I'm tired. Jezzebel is being a hissy girl and Phantom just stares at her and that makes her even crazier, gosh you guys go to opposite ends of the house already. I'm tired, let me have a moment of peace. Not to be as Jinx now has her butt in my face, you know how hard it is to type with cat butt in your way. It is not easy. Why do I have so many cats? Why? I'll tell you I am a sucker for a sad little face who needs a home, and I swear I don't even look at other cats. I have a friend who I know has 15 cats, I can't even go there. I may just bring one home. Or two. Sophia just found a bug in the curtains, so much for my curtains. I think it's a bug. Sophia is the one who will stare just over your head at something, and only she knows what it is, but I swear there is nothing there, yet she seems to focus on something. It's creepy. Well I need to do some laundry, and wash cat blankets. Crazy Cats, Tired Mom.

Asthma in Cats. Know the signs.

If you have a wheezy cat, that cat may have asthma. The following information is taken from an email I received from Dr. Jon at Petplace.com. I love this website, it is very informative and also has some great tips and videos of cat doing crazy things. Just like at home. Asthma in cats may also be known as "Feline Lower Airway Disease". Common signs include. Fast Breathing. Difficulty Breathing. Noisy Breathing, a wheeze or high pitched sound. Coughing. Some cats will cough, however they rarely do. If you have any concerns that your cat may have asthma see your vet. Some of the things you can do to minimize attacks are, use a low dust litter, minimize your use of aerosol spray cans, and no smoking around your pet. For more information on the subject please feel free to visit Petplace.com. This is a wonderful site and you can sign up for newsletters that interest you as well. The sad thing is your pets are prone to some of the same things as your Auntie Hilda, or Uncle Billy Bob. Animals can suffer from cancer, heart problems, and kidney problems, they can also develop cataracts. All of those illnesses create tough choices for kitty and doggy owners. I guess pet insurance could certainly come in handy. I must say with 5 cats I cannot at this time afford it let alone my own heath insurance. So I pray that my furry babies eat well, drink lots of water and stay safe as possible inside. That's all for today I hope to see you again tomorrow. Happy Cat, Happy Momma Cat.

Where oh where did the kitties go.

Yesterday was a beautiful day for all the Mom's for Mother's day and I certainly hope the mom's of 2 and 4 legged children enjoyed their day. I know I did, but as I had family over the cats all disappeared. When you have a house full of strangers, at least to the cats they make themselves scarce. And scarce they were, so when the toddler kept going in and out I didn't have to worry that Her Highness would escape, so I didn't have much to worry about. She is not fond of the younger members of the family and so she stays away. The rest of them just kept to themselves some where in the house and after it was all said and done they finally came out. So for me it was a great day, the cats not so much. I have one grandbaby who loves cats but he didn't even get to see the one he wanted to see which was Jekyll, I felt bad but he can come over another day to visit and see the big guy. Animals can either be very social when you have company or anti social. I think that they are just that way, but I am sure studies have been done on that as well. As long as anti social isn't the type to attack or be a pest to your guest that's okay. Some people are not comfortable around your pets and visa versa. So when having company, make sure everyone is comfortable. Granted your pets are your family, at least at my house they are, so I always make sure that they are safe from dangers. What you perceive as not danger your pet may feel otherwise. So that everyone is on the same page inform guest who have never been in your home that you do have pets and if need be but your furry babies somewhere comfortable till the goings on are over so that no one gets hurt. Human or otherwise. Well it's been a long day and I still have babies to feed, water and fuss over. Okay Jezz I know the litter boxes need done as well. Happy Cats.

House of Cards, I mean Cats.

I think that the title is actually the title of a book, or somthing, but without the cat part. On to the photos I posted, as you can see yes this is a house of cats, and catered to cats. I have cats condos, cat perches, cat dishes, cat toys and on and on and on. Every where I step is a cat, they run in front of me, they lay on the arm of my chair, they take over my bed, they follow me to the bathroom, and the kitchen, sometimes out of door. Jezzebel took advantage of my grandson yesterday and out the door she went, right over the deck and into the yard, so we let her enjoy the outdoors for a moment or two. Time for me to figure out an outdoor space for the babies. I have seen some interesting spaces to make for the outdoors, so that they are safe. I found one on Pinterest that looked very easy to build, so I am going to see if there was directions for it. Okay Jinx that was me you just ran over the top of. Phantom leave her alone. Cats dropping from the top of a cupboard is nerve racking. Okay go lick yourself some where else, preferably the closet. Anyway, I can imagine how happy my girls will be when they can go out and not have collars and leashes on. Sophia not so much, she hates outdoors, will sit in a window that is open, but thats enought outdoors for her. The boys will probably like it as well. So enjoy the pictures, enjoy your day, and I hope the weather is good where you are, and from all of us here in the Catdom, we would like to wish Moms of all kinds, wheather you have human children or furry children. HAPPY MOTHERS DAY. Blessed Be.

House of Cards, I mean Cats.

We have a new perch.

We have a new perch, it is awesome, and thanks mom. So I bring home a new scratching post with a perch on it. I put it together and set it in the living room, the first thing Phantom does is give it a good sniff and jump up on it, and there he laid for about an hour, everyone else was inspecting it and I know wanting to get up on it, but His High Maintaince was not moving from his perch high above his royal subjects. Jinx laid underneath him for awhile as did Sophia, both wanting to check this new thing out, but Phantom was not giving up his royal seat to anyone. I guess I can see why it matches his fur pretty well. Unfortunatly I did not get a picture of that, but will try the next time he is on it. I should have got two of them they were on sale after all. Well sorry it's so short today we will be back with you in the morning, momma has the day off, I plan to relax a bit then it will be off to the races this weekend. Happy, Happy, Happy Cats.

Challenges

Life has many challenges, every day that you wake up and greet a new day there will be challenges to conquer or over come. But greet each new day with positive thinking and you should do just fine. Now at my house it is a challenge to get up so early and get ready for work, feed and water five cats, decide what to do about cat hair, and I am not talking on my clothes. I know when I am sleeping a cat is on my head. Thus cat hair, not bed hair, cat hair. Some days I juggle so many roles I do not know if I am coming or going. I do believe that the cats think the only role I should have is to be their slave. Pet me, feed me, pet me ,feed me, clean the litter box, brush me and on and on it goes everyday. Her Highness thinks I should cater only to her and no one else. Jinx thinks that my clothes are a magnet for her fur, one walk by and I am covered. Man I need to brush that cat. Here kitty, kitty, let me brush you, not you Jekyll. Phantom wait your turn. Sophia where are you, I don't have the clippers, here Sophia. And on and on it goes. But at the end of the day I don't regret one bit of it. I do what I do because I'm nuts, where's that Prozac anyway. I care for my brood as though they are children, because truly they are, they depend on me for everything, entertainment included. So even though each day I wake up there are new challenges for me to face, I face them head on, I put my boots on and wade in. So even though I may rant on about all these cats, they are my sanity from everyday life, they comfort me and love me. So get a furry baby, they are the best. Happy Cat.

Cats, Oh My Gosh.

I was wondering why I had so many cats, I mean cats everywhere. In the bedroom, in the kitchen, in the closet, in the dresser, and even in the bathroom. I can't sit down, why do I have so many cats? Well I like cats and I do not plan on having anymore cats. I am the type to collect things, things that don't mean anything, but I like them, but no more cats. The amount of cat food I buy is a lot, cat litter I should have by the truck load, but that is just the beginning of having five cats. I own stock in sticky rollers, and Clorox cleaner. I kid about that, but I keep the paper towel people in business, as well as the laundry soap people. Cat blankets need to be washed just like human blankets. The people who made Febreeze love me I buy that as well. I am not saying my house stinks but in the winter it is not as fresh as it should be in the house. I also buy furnace filters in bulk. I spend so much time cleaning up after cats I think back to when my children were little, always something to do. Take for instance, one cat needs attention another thinks "Oh MY" I want attention as well move over I want up by mom, move, move it's my turn. Cats sleep on my feet, cats sleep on my head. I have the worst bed head and it isn't even cool looking like it should if I was younger, I use a lot of hair spray to tame that hair every morning. So why do I have so many cats? I'm a sucker for a sad lonely face who needs a home, but no more cats here. I love each of them for the little furry babies that they are, and care for them as they need. But please don't ask me to take one more cat. Hugs from the clan.

Hmm What is that?

Cats I am finding are really interesting creatures, but you know I have the most amazing cats. Okay I joke of course, all cats are amazing, well maybe not. Here is an interesting tidbit for you that I received from 1800PetMeds. The large triangular flap that makes up the cats external ear is called the "pinna". Now look at the little flap on the outside of a cats ear at the base. This is called the culaneous marginal pouch. Or Henry's Pocket. Now was Henry the guy who came up with the name as he did research on it or what, or who the heck is Henry anyway. Will I guess that one is for another day. Now lets get back to amazing. My cats either have an internal clock that says it's time for mom to get up and let's wake her up (even on my days off), or the food dish is empty. Either way I get up and check and go back to bed, or get ready for work. Just once I would like to not be licked or have my head sat on, on my day off before daylight. Just once please. Jekyll always knows when the water dish is not full enough or needs to be changed. He will sit and paw at the bowl and make a clanging sound on it to get your attention. Sure enough it needs one or both things to fix the water situation. And of course we have discussed how they know I will be walking through the door after work or from wherever I went. I am not a creature of habit, I do not always come straight home from work, so I am not sure how they know it's me. Also when I have my lovely daughter in law come to clip nails, Jezzebel always know something is up as she heads for the hills, or any place I cannot reach her easily. By the way Jezz that day needs to be soon, very soon. I often wonder just how the heck they know a certain bag has their food in it as well. Do the cans or bag of food have a certain scent on them that says guess what I brought home. I have no idea but it seems feasible. Sophia always goes for the right bag. Well it's still really early and I think I hear a nap calling me, plus it's still dark, so chow for now. Happy Cat.

Midnight at the Crazy Cat Ladies House.

It does not look like this picture, it looks more like cats on catnip. Way to much catnip. I know that for the most part the cats sleep the day away. When I come home from work they are raring to go, and follow me everywhere. Even the bathroom, and if I shut the door all the way, paws are under the door. It is funny to see a paw coming under the door, like they can get under it. It is said that cats may get crazy at night like their ancestors because that is when cats mostly hunted and avoided other larger animals at night. So a hunting we will go. I just wish it wasn't at my house. As I mentioned I get up early, and to have a cat or two or three or more, (you get the idea) running around the house chasing each other and furry mice, it can wake you right up. I hate that. There are also some thoughts that they are bored all day when you are gone and this is the perfect time to play. Hey you are a captive audience, your sleeping. Kittens I swear are the most prone to Midnight Craziness, they store all that energy up and something just lights a fire under their little butt's and off they go. I don't see this as a behavior problem, I see it as a cat doing what it just does. I know that there are studies on this, I have read bits and pieces here and there, but if you what a crazy cat lady's thoughts, they are bored and what you to play with them some more. I know this is the case here at my house. Having so many cats can be a chore sometimes, along with everything else. I do try to make sure they have plenty of open curtains and places to watch the world go by when I am gone, but nothing beats getting on the floor for some play time and cuddles. Happy Cats, and not to many Midnight Crazies.

Happy May Day.

All is well here in the Catdom. Everyone is happy and healthy. We have really had a very rough few weeks and Miss Kitty's mom has been under the weather. Miss Kitty is boarding with some friends currently, and I can only say bless the kindness of people. We would like Miss Kitty to live with us but as we already have a house full this is really not an ideal plan. We will figure it out and she will be well taken care of. I always hope that if something happens to me that my brood will be taken care of. It is difficult to think of those things and if you have pets try and put a safeguard in place for them if you have an emergency or get sick and cannot take care of your babies. In my case I do have family that lives with me and they will be taken care of and I have friends who will also help. My biggest problem would be if I had to find homes for them, or my family did. I have two cats that definitely have to stay together. Jezzebel and Jinx would have to stay together. The boys would probably be fine if they were separate. Sophia would be fine if she has a nice sensible dog to live with who would tolerate a cat. So not only do we have to think of children we also must think of our pets. Probably not the topic you were hoping for but I just thought I should discuss it. So tomorrow I will have some current cat antics for you, and lighten it up a bit. I also have some great stories that I have received via email I will share over the next few days, so stay tuned, and have a fabulous day or night depending where you are. The kitties send hugs to all of our readers and I have some pictures to share. Happy Cat.
