    thank you cabcraft, Butterball is still ruling the roast with a little attitude, and we wouldn't have it any other way !

    You have been blessed by being chosen to care for ths special little being. I love how cats choose their names. We often give them a name, but only a cat knows its real name. I hope you have many years of love together. X@

    Last year I found a little gray tabby at the city landfill and took him home.He has since been fixed and has grown up to be a big boy.I don't see how someone could just dump an animal like that.

    Thank you for sharing your lovely story. I had a diabetic cat for many years, and it seemed to help that I'm diabetic also. He always watched with great interest when I would give myself a shot before I gave him his.

    Wow...a deer and a wolf in your yard ! I want to live there.



    Your Humane Society sound like they have the right idea, I take my hat off to them.



    Your "ghost" cat sounds like she has made a new friend in your cat, we share our lives with cats from many walks of life.



    enjoy !

    I'd gladly take in the beautiful snow white feral cat--she looks exactly like my cat except for the color--she's a long slinky cat. When I first saw her, after calling my cat, I know this will sound silly, but I thought she was his ghost. She never comes near enough for me to offer her food. One cannot leave food outside, because it would draw, skunks, raccoons -even coyotes. There is plenty of wild food for cats here, quail, mice, ground squirrels--the feral cats all look healthy--people are discouraged from feeding them--they don't multiply as frequently. The humane Society, traps them, alters them, gives them shots--then sets them free--where they found them. The deer come right up on my patio and eat my tomatoes. My grandson and I saw a full grown timber wolf in my yard.

    Your cat has an admirer....how cute, maybe wants to share your home too.



    Our cats definitely train us,but love us unconditionally.



    Dogs have masters, cats have servants.

    I love these stories about cats. Although I've had many cats in my life, I never paid much attention to them. They were mostly outdoor cats and only came in the house when they felt like it -- the cat I have now, is the first one to become my companion. I've always been a dog person. He is definitely not a dog. LOL It would seem, that he is training me rather than the reverse. Recently, I have observed a snow white feral cat who follows him around. Oddly, when I call my cat--the feral cat comes--even when mine ignores me. She doesn't come clear up to the door. Just appears a short ways off. I know when I see her, that he's close by.

    Butterball lives quite a charmed life...and still lays down the law...the others just ignore her and play with her when she's in a sharing mood

    I think its great that you were able to rescue her and get her settled into your home. Im sorry that Butterball got diagnosed with diabetes. I hope she is doing okay.
