Started with one, Abigail, grew to six. Then a guest gave me a sign that said, “Every Life Should Have Nine Cats.” Solved that challenge within the year. Up to 28 now, probably will stop at around three dozen or so, but who knows. They are mostly Tan and Orange Tabbies and Maine Coons. Got a few tortoise shell gals. They are sooo obnoxious, but sooo cute. Just runs in their genes, nothing you can do about it. All are long hair critters but three, and all ‘keepers.’
