Surprise!

Simon Simon: Mom just came home, she thinks it’s just another night, but tonight is something special!
We got one of her birthday presents in the mail today, and after much debate, we’ve convinced Cat Dad to let us give it to her a few days early.


There is a lot of high-pitched squealing going on, and that is only over the box!

Now the squealing is getting really loud! She’s telling us we are the best kitties in the world! Of course, she always tells us that, but when she uses that squealing voice, you KNOW she really loves us AND the gift!

Simon Are we good or what?!
Cat Mom: Y’all are more than good!
Cat Dad and the kittes are THE BEST!

Hopeful
We’re hopeful that 2020 will see more people become Feral Caretakers. It is such important and rewarding work. We’re thankful that we were able to trap Elf’s family and get them inside, ready for spaying, neutering and vaccinations – not to mention a warm safe place with lots of food, fresh water and TOYS!
It snowed in Texas last Saturday, I didn’t get myself together in time to get a picture because those white fluffy flakes didn’t last long, but it was VERY cold that day and I’m so glad the little ferals are inside.
The old Tom Cats are the only ferals left outside, Gus and Bob are not inside cats and have let us know that loud and clear on the occasions we have tried to persuade them to come inside! But we’ll keep their food and water bowls full and their shelters clean and as warm as possible. They are as much part of our family as our inside cats.
Here are the latest photos of two of Elf’s siblings … the photos are not very clear, but they are not used to posing quite yet.

Harry Houdini, the last one we trapped, he eluded us for 2 days. 
Little Dusty, a tiny girl who’s fur is not black but a dark brown/gray not visible in this photo. Heartfelt thanks to all the Feral Caretakers out there, and here’s hoping there will be more added to the ranks this year!
