4. Hi!
It' so hot you, gotta love animal cooling off stories. There's a guy I see when I'm driving to work walking his dog a Siberian Husky. It's hot and I get hot just looking at all that fur!

My cats lay about in the air conditioning, and I've been putting some ice cubes in the water for the stray cats outside.


I hope you're doing well.

10. I have a feral colony of 12 now, water and food twice a day
I'll have pictures soon. I'm like the pied piper, they wait outside of my apartment in the morning and walk with me to their houses. it is a sight to see. All head butting each other and then laying down in front of me to get my attention. Have a new member who is a dump. She is feisty, loud and one of the ugliest cats I have ever seen. I am hoping I can bring her in this winter. She'd get along great with my loud mouthed Lilly.

14. Yes, definitely all neutered!
First priority is not to increase the numbers that don't have homes!

7. yep
we had fences and corrals built out of pipe and "sucker rod" like a lot of Oklahoma ranches do. The typical gate latch was a piece of sucker rod that slid into a hole in the gate post with a piece of flat welded on as a handle. To open the gate you had to lift the handle and slide it over. Our big mare had it down pat. We had to safety wire all the gates with bailing wire to keep her from opening them

9. There's a "sacred" Brahmin cow in India who turns on and off a public faucet for a drink.
It learned by watching humans do it.
