A bit of an update about Luciano and his roof adventures. Our roof is divided into quarters. He has full access to 1/4 on the south side and the 1/4 next to it is currently unoccupied, so really he can use that 1/2 of the roof. The north side has the lovely garden owned by a woman who loves him & a man who is allergic. We've been given the all clear to hang out over there too, so that's 3/4 of the roof. The final quarter of the roof has one guy who loves Luciano and another who I thought didn't, but turns out he is highly allergic to cats, so I try to keep him off that 1/4.

A few days ago he had a lovely time in the garden quarter of the roof, specifically by the tomato plants.View attachment 255202 View attachment 255203 View attachment 255204 View attachment 255205

ileen ileen I would love to see your seashell art! Coming from an area near the ocean I grew up loving shells. I know I will love what you do!
M maggiedemi I would like to see some pictures of her bothe before and after! I would like to see both of your babies! I think everyone enjoys seeing pictures of every kitty that we have brought into our lives!

Can I @ Hekitty some head bonks right back?

My news tonight is that I am really worn out. The sick kitties are requiring a lot of extra care. I hope they will all be well soon. The worry is enough to wear us all out when a kitty is sick.

BJ was in a very affectionate mood today. He was head bonking like Hekitty!

He is talking to me a lot now too.

Because my eyes are bad tonight I am going straight for rest and kitty snuggles. I have been fortunate this past year to get a lot of kitty snuggling in. I’ll share a portion here. These are our smiles from the cats.

All of these snuggles make me a very fortunate person! :redheartpump: :catlove:

Thank you for all those lovely pictures. You have such a wonderful way with them all. I'm so happy to see BJ waiting for treats and pets from you.

He does look very healthy for an outdoor cat. What's your plan, are you going to get a few more cats adopted or fostered before you bring him indoors?

I don't have any pictures of Maggie when she first came here, I wish I did. But she would probably have gotten mad at me for sharing pictures of her looking that scruffy! I'll take some pics this winter for you. Would you believe I've never even taken a selfie? I need to get a smartphone.

What a gorgeous furry family you have!
I have to get myself organized with regards to my seashell crafting. I've taken some steps into making jewelry & I'd like to start selling, but I have no infrastructure. I guess I should go to etsy and make a page. I don't know if I'm going to set up my own website for this. Hoping I can get orders from letting people know on facebook, emailing & etsy (and of course any cat site people who are interested :)).
I'm in the midst of switching from my old reliable iphone4 to an iphone6, which I'm told has a better camera. I'll start taking pictures once I'm done with that, and I'll be sure to share.

BJ really is coming right along! Talking to you now, that's a real step forward! LOVED LOVED LOVED all the photos. Bet you're never cold in the winter, with that group around you!

Would you believe I've never even taken a selfie?
I have a smart phone (of sorts), and neither have I. I don't like pictures of me. At all. I keep wondering, "Who on earth is that old woman?"

Poor BJ. Hope he gets his girlfriends back after he gets neutered.
It doesn't seem to cool their ardour much. Mine have all been fixed for years now, but the "couples", Marley and Sadie, Chicken and Hiro, Heidi and Little Boy, still smooch and snuggle with each other.

Sorry I have been off line today. Family member is not doing well.

Norachan Not sure if I am supposed to @ you but want to respond to you. I know you enjoy Mr. BJ and I take pictures of him with you in mind every day. Lol He is such a dashing fellow!
I am dealing with three sick kitties right now so my quarantine areas are full. I will need to get some more kitties accepted to the shelter before I can bring him in. It’s killing me to wait but I am not sure I can quite convince him yet anyway. I nearly got him the other day but if I had it would probably have been a problem. Everything in the proper time I guess. I am working with him daily so I hope he will be ready as soon as I have a spot open for him. I have some other people needing me to take kitties as well but I just can’t find homes quickly enough. I will try to help them as I can. I desperately wish others in this area would step up to foster more. I have only one person I can look to for help of any kind in the foster arena and no other help of any kind. It’s really sad. I do want to try to do more for more cats at some point. I am working towards that possibility.
For now, maybe you will smile at my sweet fella!

Great food!

Supper was good but a cat needs attention.

There is a tree a cat could rub against!

Not exactly the way to hit the right spot.

Maybe another angel would work better.

The tree really isn’t that great!

Maybe a human would work better?

Mamanyt1953 Mamanyt1953 I don’t do selfies either but the cats do! Banjo does them very well.:lol: He took this without my help or knowledge until I found the pictures on my phone. Cats are so smart!

dustydiamond1 dustydiamond1 I think BJ must be lonely. He is hugging a tree!
ileen ileen looking forward to seeing the shell work.
M maggiedemi Looking forward to pictures!

I hope you enjoyed BJ learning to be a love bug! He is coming along slowly. With any luck, he will get to come in and see the girls again.

Well surya surya That baby looks a lot like someone we all know!
Ring!
The great news for today is that Ring got adopted today! Maybe that means your rescue of the day will get adopted quickly as well! Everyone loves a Gingerbread baby!

Your Babbette is beautiful and funny! I always wonder what they are thinking when they try to get into spaces that they know are too small. :flail: Thank you for that picture! Love it! You added to our smiles for tonight! :yess:

Good night all! :redheartpump:

This is my torte girl Babbette. She was trying to get into a container that was too small for her.
I love Torties. She is so pretty. She looks exactly like my very first childhood cat Kitter.

I think BJ must be lonely. He is hugging a tree!
Awww, send him over here. He looks quite huggable.

M maggiedemi BJ will pack his old kit bag and come for a visit. Lol I suggest you set an extra plate for breakfast!
Have you and ileen ileen met Muffin?
Thank you for the wishes about my family. It isn’t going very well but I always hope. Banjo is a very smart kitty. She is always using something around here. She keeps me laughing.
Here is my sweet little Muffin. She is a rescue from the last colony.

surya surya Ring just had one of those sweet faces you can’t resist. He did a great job of claiming a person!

My cat news here today is that I am still treating the kitties for tummy issues. It is getting better but it remains a mystery as to what caused it. Swithching their food did not seem to make any difference. The vet says to continue with what I am doing. If they aren’t totally over it soon I will take them back in for another check up.

Kelly is improving.

Our smile for today comes from a few more kitty snuggles.

Nothing is more relaxing than snuggling with a kitty. I may have helped them but I just hope I have done as much for them as they have done for me. Can life be any sweeter?:redheartpump: :catrub:

No, I don't remember Muffin. She looks like a Calico. :redheartpump:
If BJ came for a visit, Demi would never let him leave. He loves having friends.
Love all the cozy pics of cuddling. It sure fits the season. :)
