Junie and Angelcakes napping this afternoon.

Custard visits the window!

The elusive one-eyed Custard continues to become more social. She not only came downstairs, she's actually sitting in the window!

A poor kitty hit by a car

As I was turning off Oklahoma this morning I saw a dead raccoon in the intersection and thought, well, nothing. Then I saw it was a cat. Then I saw it was an injured cat. Then I saw it was an injured cat about to be run over by a bus. I stopped my car and got out (almost losing my driver's door to traffic) and scooped her up. She was unable to use her hind legs so I put her in the car and called the owner. After a half hour of pet sitting Jade is back at home and seemed to have regained use of her back legs.

 Here are the flowers I bought Lisa for her Easter gift. And here is our elusive one-eyed Custard scurrying away after being caught trying to eat them.

Happy Adoption Day!

 One year ago today we adopted Custard, our one-eyed cat.

A Cat (duh)

 YaYa and a friend's cat

Custard takes a leap of faith

While I'm bored and lonely, I might as well mention that a couple of weeks ago our one eyed cat Custard jumped out of Yaya's second floor window, landed on the cement fifteen-twenty feet below, marched up the back porch, and meowed until the frightened kids ran downstairs to check on her and let her in. Just jumped. No reason. Crazy - and lucky - cat.

Angelcakes gets a kitty bed!

Lisa found a toy cat bed at a church rummage sale and, as she predicted, Angelcakes claimed it for her very own. Not bad for a buck!

Question

Are cats intimidated by themselves in the mirror? Cause I heard scratching and hissing and found Custard clawing at my mirror and scratching it up.  - Lu

Custard is getting some Loving!

 

The Runner Up

 NOT the kitty we adopted, but the runner up, Polaris. Too shy for our clan.

Introducing our new cat, Custard!!!

Our new pet, a one eyed 2 year old female that has been transferred from a humane society near Reedsville. It's our second one eyed cat , although this one actually had it removed ,while GusGus just lacks the use of one of his.

it was the eye that sold me on her. We looked at a couple others but it was always going to be her.

As usual the adoption process took forever, but Junie and LuLu held up well. I think the society makes you wait to see if you crack. If you don't they figure you'll keep your cool with the pet.

I feel kind of guilty because my friend Fred has a cat he needs to part with but his cat ventures outside and my nerves just can't handle that, as Team Slap can attest.

The Humane Society named the cat Baby Girl but Junie has changed the name to Custard. I'm not sure that's a final decision.

Welcome cat to the circus that is #TeamSlap!

The Neighborhood Kitty

This is a neighborhood kitty that was on my porch just now. I enjoyed a swell ten minutes playing with him. He at up a saucer of milk and has lost his collar since the last time we saw him, but some house in this neighborhood has claim to him.

GusGus ran away - again.

GusGus ran away this afternoon, and an extensive search of the neighborhood turned up empty. Luckily I checked the backyard again (for the 1000th time) and he came strolling up as if to say "What up bro?". This is not a housecat for the faint hearted.
