How could you turn a face like that away! :D :D Good looking fella.
The one we rescued and adopted last Summer, "Lucky" has grown up pretty fast. He's now bigger than our other Male cat, and our food bill has tripled! :eek: I'm really glad we kept him though, he's the funniest one of the bunch. Every afternoon when I take a little nap on the couch all three of them see the quilt come out and come running to nap with me. :LOL:

I glad I'm not the only one that gets the fur pulled over my eyes!! This guy was pitiful we could feel his rib cage. We just don't know what people are thinking when they dump these cats. We had one kitten show up that fit in my wife’s hand. We had one cat that was shot with an arrow, I was in the garage and I heard something hitting the door, he was trying to get through the cat door in the service door of the garage. I cut the arrow a few inches from his body and we rushed him to the Vet around 10:00 p.m. I tell my wife don't even tell me what it cost. He is doing great now as are all of the other cats that were either dropped
off or found their way here. We have already named him Michael, you know what that means.
Your Cats look like they are well taken care of, my wife said you have one cat that we do not have, the one that is black and white but have all of the others. Our cat named Blackie looks like yours with long hair.
One day I will get a group picture.

Word gets out in the stray cat community about where the soft touch's live in the neighborhood!!!!! All we've ever had is pets nobody else wanted.... A bird that is way too noisy and a black cocker spaniel, seems nobody ever wants to buy the black ones..... Had an Irish Setter for 16 years that somebody had dumped on the side of the road, and lots of cats that just kind of come around to visit a few days, then move on. They're still the best pets!!!!Quote:

I suppose we could look at all creatures as they are just trying to survive like us. None of us really had anything to do with being brought into this world but it is for sure we all know that we will be taken out.
It nice to see other people helping the Stray Animals

The shop took in a couple of stray cats.
Lets just say we don't have a mouse problem anymore.
The mom on the left came by with the kitty on the right and hung around for a coupe days till we gave them food. She was skinny but got her weight back over the summer. As the kitty matured she finally left him but still comes by. We got 2 inside cats and now this guy outside.

Yep Bob, I think about that every once in a while. I remember you encouraging me to keep Lucky, saying "sometimes these things come into our lives for a reason." You were absolutely right, he has been a great addition to the house, and makes me laugh constantly with the stuff he does. Some nights I fill up the tub and soak while reading, and he always sits on the edge of the tub with me. One night he slipped in......shoulda seen both of us scrambling!!! :eek:Quote:

No kidding!!!:eek: :eek: Guess that explains why we got 5 living in the house and 11 at the barn. All of whom get fed daily. No wonder I can't afford car parts.:LOL: :LOL:Quote:

Twitch - I had to check where you live. Hey we got two that look like that. Mostly white with blends of grey and silver with bright blue eyes.Quote:

Thought they might have been ours. Can't be, you're a little out of my neighbor hood.
They won't even let the old man sleep:) :)
Hehe, they just want to make sure you are ok, that's all! :LOL: :LOL: Bet you hate to get up and disturb them............I know I do when mine plop down on top of me like that. :LOL: :LOL:
Don
Don You got that right. Sometimes with them both on my stomach and lap I fall asleep and wake up saying what the hells on me. Love animals and always wanted to be a vet, but it didn't work out. Bart
