Today was a nice and quiet day, so maybe it was as close to the life of our cats as we humans can manage! 😀 Just look at Keith! He is such a calm and quiet cat. We brought him indoors to better treat his eyes; they were never as bad as his brother David's, … Continue reading Oh, to have the life of our cats

Critter of the Day: eyebrows
The way this blue jay's head is set, it looks like he has big, fluffy eyebrows!
Morning kitties, and apparently we had a storm

These guys know well enough to stay out of the wind, even if they can see fresh food and water is about to be dispensed! 😀 Except this little Spice Boy, who has a … Continue reading Morning kitties, and apparently we had a storm

We did not feel it would be safe for her to be outside, yet. She got the basement all to herself for the night. … Continue reading Back outside: Butterscotch recovery update
