It is very good living here for the cat population. We still have about eighteen cats and there are more on the way. One of the mother cats is pregnant again and in a few weeks we’ll have a fresh batch of cuddly kittens to offer to everyone. Tastee Wheat’s first litter was seven kittens and the way she’s growing, it probably will be another seven. It’s time to spay. All the cats and kittens are so cute and nice that it’s hard to let any of them go to other homes, but it’s better for the cats to have new surroundings.

This morning was tragic. One of our males ran in the street in front of the house and was hit by a car. Killed instantly, he felt no pain. It’s very unusual for the cats to run in the road; they are so quick, but this was a freak accident.

If ever this house will sell, getting the kittens to good homes will be a huge problem. No one will love the little creatures more than us – they just need a little food and water daily. Other than that they take care of themselves, they stay outside, and they make sure we never have any rodents, or snakes. I wish we could take them all with us.
