Life with Cats


This is Tiger.  He's my soulful kitty.  He's shy but affectionate.  Every night he runs to the bedroom to jump up to his spot at the foot of the bed.  He came to us as a feral cat from the back yard.

We have a new group of feral cats now.  We have had a dozen of them spayed or neutered, but apparently there were two intact cats still out there because four new kittens showed up about a month ago.

This is the new crew on our back deck:


The black kitty in the foreground is the mother cat.  There are four kittens:





The kittens are usually close to the mother.  We have seen her playing with them.  When they were younger, we saw them trying to nuzzle underneath for a snack.  Sometimes, however, she needs a little break.  The other day we saw them trying to get to her as she sat on top of an igloo.


They tend to be irresistible…




How could anyone not want to take care of them?
