Finally Fall

This summer was brutal. It seemed to hover in the sweaty zone for three months! It is finally cooling down but with that comes the winter worries - what will the stray cats do? Well, first we've built one house for them out of plastic tubs and straw. Stumpy really would like to be an indoor cat but we've limited ourselves to three cats - we can't be freaky cat ladies! So Dee built stumpy a little house on the front porch with a towel and a box. We may have to make that a bit more substantial but it's a start.

My concern is that we must get the females spayed. There are enough stray cats and we cannot be adding to the population. But without being overly dramatic, we are not made of money and food and shelter for alley cats is eating at us so we're going to try to find a vet to spay them a little cheaper. We can't even catch the females yet though.

These cats!
