Posted by in cats We have lost far too many pets in the last two years. Most of them were quite elderly, and we expect that. But the heartbreak this week was losing Annie, who was only four. Annie joined our household four years ago. She was part of a colony that had been TNR’d, and some months after…Read more »
Posted by in cats Some of you might remember a recent post about Annie, our little feral. New Alliances. She hasn’t let me touch her much since she was a sick (close to dying) kitten some years ago. She eats from my hand and she will sometimes let me pet her when I give her a meal, but that’s…Read more »
Posted by in cats Three years ago this month, she was on death’s door. Annie is now a healthy cat, somewhere between three and four years old. She was about 7 months old when I captured her as a feral kitten, sick to the point of dying any day. It took four months of intensive care and meds…Read more »

He was about 6 months old or so when the neighbors wanted him to find another home, and we ended up taking him, of course. Which turned…Read more »
Posted by in cats Two years has flown by quickly, though it didn’t always seem that way. I captured Annie, our little feral cat, on November 11, 2013. She was about six months old, and on death’s door then, a story told in my blog. After four months of intense care, she recovered completely, and has been living with…Read more »
Posted by in cats, Weekly photo challenge Few creatures are better at enveloping themselves than cats, so this week’s photo challenge – to show what enveloped means – was easy! This little one is Annie, a feral kitten brought in because she was so sick. She was already about 7-8 months by this time, very late for bringing in a kitten who…Read more »
Posted by in cats, feral cats “Tell me, what is it you plan to do with your one wild and precious life?” ― Mary Oliver I haven’t shared much about Annie lately…thought some of you might like an update.
