Shiloh and Trouble have a bond that's incredible to see.

Image

Shiloh grabs some water in the cat corner. I just wish the cats would stop playing kibble hockey.

Image

Not a good picture but Trouble has very dark green eyes and an orange nose.

Image

Trouble barely fits for a nap anymore up on the "cat castle".

I see a book in the future :lol:
Would definitely make a good children's book but that's just the librarian in me talking.
Possible cash source for the ponies account ;)

Arrow, as an old dog owner that had two great ladies for 19 and 15 years (border collie mix and rotty respectively) and who never gave a hoot about cats I am a different man now.

My son befriends the young street cat and works some trust into her life for him. My wife recognizes labor off a pregnancy when the cat decides to give birth at maybe the only place where she has been shown human kindness (my front yard).

The old man goes mush with kittens and shelters their mother and them.

I'm just happy that two of four kittens were adopted and that we could keep two.

Yeah, year #1 is going to cost a couple of thousand with the vet for premium cat care and neutering and shots and blood works and all the other stuff but the wife and I decided it was the right thing to do.

Thank God I inherited the gene from my mother that makes me want to get up before dawn to make coffee and breakfast. When Mister Mittens is breathing into my face and gently stroking my face with a paw at 4:30 a.m. (claws in) I wake up and pet her and say, "OK, Mom, just let me take a leak and I'll be serving breakfast."

As I get out of bed she races off to her feed dish with her kids.

Chaos and his brother Trouble have the same long tiger-striped tail.
