In a development which will surprise no one, Daisy is now an inside cat. Mr. L expressed concerns that Zelda might reject her since she’s been gone so long as well as a couple other concerns. I need to put together another cat carrier. I have a couple damaged carriers, … Continue reading →
Daisy’s post-spay instructions said to keep her indoors for 10 days. It’s been an interesting experience. I was concerned about what Lady would do. I needn’t have worried. This kitten, who cries at the window to go out, has a growl equivalent to a cat three times her size. She … Continue reading →
Other than our sad news about Nick earlier in the week, the cats’ lives have been quiet. At one time this week, we had four cats lounging on the tower at the same time. I think that’s a first. Rossie was in the bottom “bunk.” Lady was in the middle … Continue reading →
This morning the risk with outside cats became a reality for our household. As near as I can pinpoint it, an hour and a half ago, Nick was running across the street toward the house and got hit by a car. He was killed instantly. At 9:40 this morning, Mr. … Continue reading →

We came home from spending the weekend out of town to discover something had pulled the outdoor cat feeder away from the wall and stacked the bricks we use to hold it in place. I was certain Zelda, Nick, and Daisy had not conspired to do that. Unfortunately, the game … Continue reading →
Daisy is nearly five months old, and she’s doing well. This is a common scene that warms my heart — the three of them relaxing, sleeping, or playing on the porch. Zelda is half out of the picture on the left. Nick and Daisy are snuggled together on the doormat, … Continue reading →
