It is the only thing that keeps me from thinking about this nightmare we are living.
Our Tortie started sleeping on our porch 20 years ago. Then she would jump up on the screen door and peer into the house. We already had two rescues but of course we invited her in. We took her to be spayed and she was already pregnant. She delivered six very healthy kittens...we managed to find homes for all of them and we think she has outlived them all. She is incredibly healthy for an old broad.
