I was checking out how the cats tuck under the kibble house, where they hide and watch while I do the outside errands. It's completely clear of snow, but the ground is quite frozen, of course. After seeing how the cats were doing the cold toes dance yesterday, I decided to go see if I … Continue reading Critter(s) of the Day: toe warmer

The cuteness! It's overwhelming! 😀 Cabbage let me pick her up and cuddle her for a while. When I put her down on my bed, she let me snuggle her some more. Then Grandma came over and started grooming her. Before I knew it, she was snuggled in with Cheddar, who took over the grooming, … Continue reading Accepted

Progress: kibble house is done!
We did it! We were able to finish the winter shelter for the outdoor cats' kibble containers! The only thing it needs now is to be painted, which will probably wait until spring. Of course, things didn't quite go to plan, but that's pretty much how everything goes! 😀 One of the first things we … Continue reading Progress: kibble house is done!

There had been quite a crowd at the food bowls … Continue reading Getting a little closer, and… another one

Photo(s) of the Day: oh, the life of an indoor cat
It used to be that just Cheddar or Dave would still my husband's chair as soon as he got up. Then it started to be both of them. Now "grandma" has joined them, too! What a life! 😀

Our new addition has been thoroughly accepted by the other indoor cats. It's looking like our temporary situation is becoming permanent...

Critter of the Day: safe and satisfied
The little hairy bean, also known as Dave, has settled into our home quite solidly. Safely indoors, with a full belly and cleared up eyes, and humans that let him sleep pretty much anywhere he wants. Life is good as an indoor cat!

Sanctuary
When we decided to move out here and take care of the farm for my mother, we had some ideas of what to expect, and what we might do in the future. We were not naive about it, though, and knew that things would have to change with circumstances. One thing I did not even … Continue reading Sanctuary
