i have a new cat...

I live in the country and I have 3 cats of my own outside and one older female inside. When I feed my cats outside, I do not just feed 3- I feed 8!!! I feel like I have a sign hanging from my house saying "All stray cats welcome here". It would not be so bad if I could catch them or pet them. I worry about them not being vaccinated and worry about whether my cats will be safe with them around. I really love cats, they are one of my most favorite animals. I would love to be able to build a sanctuary for all the unwanted cats in the world. Some of these cats look like they have been through a war zone. I don't know how long they have been without human contact, or even what sort of contact they had before they found my home. Anyway, I still feed them everyday, and I try to spend time with them outside so that they might see that I will not hurt them, and eventually they might see me as a friend not an enemy. I am glad that you have decided to keep this cat. He seems to have found a home, where he will be treated with the respect and love that he deserves. I believe that people who dump animals without knowing what will become of them, have no heart. tdbrower1969

Oh that is so nice that you are thinking of maybe keeping him, I believe cats know what people are nice people, you should be honoured this cat has picked you...
