If you build it,they will come! Sure enough, not long after the mountain of hay was installed felines started to wander in. The first was a tattered old gal we named Nana. She has since wandered on as we would not let her in the house. Next was fleeting glimpses of a big long haired white and black male. He left his scent everywhere but that was about it( the rascal) Now we appear to have a keeper. She is a minuscule little girl we named Miss Kitty and she has made herself quite at home. Not only that she is quite the connoisseur of kitty food, only eating the actual tuna fish in sauce looking ones that cost a buck or more a piece. No ground 39 cent a can for her thank you very much! She is very affectionate and apparently fearless. She rubs up on everyone and everything. That means Cuervo and Boo and the dogs much to their dismay. Yesterday in the field while I was hanging with Cuervo she saunters out meowing(she is very talky) and proceeds to rub herself all over Cuervos lowered head. I stood amazed at his gentleness as my old horse Zee was a notorious cat stomper. Anyhow there was all kinds of mutual love going on when I caught a vibe from Cuervo that he might just sample her tail that was presently sticking half way up his nostril. Ms.K must have caught the same vibe and gave him a good whack on the snout, but then instead of running off she went right back to rubbing herself across his mouth. That is when he put his very surprised face back down in range. Whew, this kitty has cahones man! Either that or she has some sort of cat disability that suppresses common cat sense. In any case she is now queen of Toad Bubble Flats. If I see processions of kitties in waiting, and hear heralding trumpets, she and I will have to have a little talk. But for now, its great to have a feline again. Even one with champagne tastes.
