How many times have I said I'm at my max with 6?
Well, it happens to the best of us. This big guy started coming around about a month ago, talking to my girls through the screen door, and eventually talked his way into the house. The vet thinks he's about 5 years old.

When I put more than one attachment in a message they show up as links instead of images, so I'm going to post a whole series of messages.

Meet Hercules

Yeah... I probably would have succumbed to his charms, too.


Hey - right now I have SEVEN resident cats, one adult foster and three tiny kittens... my boyfriend is about to hit the roof. Another foster - one who is better able to look after the kittens - is going to take them on. Whew!!

He's beautiful
I would have found it difficult to turn him away too.

Oh, he's dreamy! And right at home!!

My max was 1, and then I got Abby as a companion for Chynna. When Chynna went to the bridge, I wanted a second kitty for a companion for Abby. Then I decided that she liked being my only kitty so I decided to just have her.  The next thing I know I'm adopting a kitten! But she had a brother, and I couldn't leave him behind, so I ended up adopting 2 kittens, and now I have 3 kitties!  That is my absolute max!!!  LOL

Oh heavens, Hercules is just gorgeous! He knew exactly where to go to find the best home.

(I've given up on our maximum number of cats.....at the point, I'm just praying that we stay at seven for a long while.)
