What's with all the cat pictures?
I see lots of cats. Cats everywhere. It's like the cat place for cats who like cats. Cats and cats of cats. Cats.

5. Cat lovers abound here................

19. that isn't even all of them.! LOL that is my sister's house on the
farm, and she was at Cat Alert Red at that particular time. These cats are all in Kentucky. My sister is Official Purveyor of Cats to Thompson Farms, which is up the road a bit. They take her cats to guard their grain bins from the Evil Rodent Kingdom.


these are on the back steps



these are nearby on the airconditioner unit

there were about twenty cats in all, and about 14 of them were solid black. I took the photo on the back steps then turned and did the one on the AC unit.


totally unrelated but my favorite cat photo: my husband in our home in Texas with the young kittens at about 4 weeks of age:

20. What Beautiful Kitties!
Good workers too. I have six and two are polydactyls. If a mouse is dumb enough to get in and it has happened, they take care of it fast!

Cats Rule!

23. One of mine is a polydactyl Siamese Mix


Have you ever visited the Hemingway Home and Museum in Key West? If you love cats, especially polydactyls, you would love this place. There are about 65 cats in residence and about half of them are bigfoots, all descended from Hemingway's personal cats ( he had 5 or 6) and he loved polydactyls. The cats roam the gardens, are very spoiled and tame and love to be photographed. All are named for famous persons, mostly literary or arts related people, or just friends of Ernest's.


These are a few I took when we visited :

21. Didn't you read the rules when you signed up at DU
It's mandatory to be a cat owner. If you aren't, you'll be kitty shopping soon!
