Howard,

Is there really more than one way to skin the cat, or it that it?

Howard,

Heh. We were talking about that today. Neither one of us had ever skinned a cat, but we eventually got it done.

Rescue cats are the most grateful. They know when they are loved.

They kind of know don't they? Our cat was not a rescue cat. He was the offspring of cat my dad had on his property and he thought my girls should have a cat thus giving it to us not necessarily to my liking but I was kind of on the spot.

So a few years later although I am not much of a cat person Not a cat hater by no means I could just care less but this cat tangled with some kind of animal which tore a chuck slighty larger than a quarter of skin off him exposing mussel. So the wife takes him to the vet and calls me and says its gonna cost $600 to fix him . I pondered a moment, This cat aint worth $600 and asked how much will it cost to put him down? ( ok I was just being a smartass when I said that) I paid it.

Ever since then that cat comes and sets in my lap every night when I am on the computer. or sits near by. Its like he knew and appreciates that he was saved.

I have been a cat person all my life. While dogs are loyal, I have had great rescue cats that have been so loyal (and intelligent) that it astounded even the most jaded "dog person". Every one of them was a "rescue cat".

I got the cougar pelt back from Moyle Mink over in Idaho. Turned out nice.

Good lord man! I open this thread expecting to see a picture of how those little kittens of yours are coming along. What do I get....?

Heh. I did try to get some pictures of the little beasts, but they won't sit still long enough. They're growing like weeds, and as happy as can be now that the weather is better. Spend a lot of time outside when it's sunny.

They love it when I make a cave for them. Here's a picture of the all-black one. Or at least, of her eyes.

Thanks again, @74bronco. Hope you and yours are dong well.

I barely saw her! They do grow up fast, this one is only 3 now. The other is 12.

Big babies!

 

[Howard1955]

Just tried again to get a picture. One of their favorite things is a little cave made from a grocery bag. Almost got the picture this time...

I had a cat named Cleo. She went missing 2 years ago and never came back.

Sorrry that happened. Always tough to lose a pet.

Yeah. She was kinda grungy looking and she was an outdoor cat so we hope some lady saw her and picked her up thinking she was homeless. Most likely some yotes got her.

They are very affectionate but they shed like hell. You have to brush them every day and I always brush off a good 3 or so brushes full in about 10 minutes.

Do you know where I might obtain one?
