Kitties On the Farm

August 28, 2011 by Morgan 4 Comments

When you live on a farm one of the MANY animals you have running around is probably a small HERD of cats.


Well, unfortunately sometimes you lose one or two during the year. 

At our home place we only have (had) three cats. Three cats that I have nurtured and loved like crazy for the last year…well actually it started out with 6 cats that I loved and nurtured for the last year. They were my babies…well them and our two puppies that I take pictures of non stop. 

But our cats…now they really own the place. They look like large indoor house cats that live outside and are supposed to be our mousers. Needless to say, I have a problem spoiling them I think.

Anyway, we lost our fluffy kitty Gracie a few days ago..

Can anyone guess what that means for me for the next 6 weeks??





For those of you who guess correctly….

Yes, bottle feeding baby kitties.

Here’s to a few late nights and practicing my patience.

    I hope so! I will say the last one I bottle fed is a total attachment to me most days!

    I’m a sucker for farm cats too. You are so sweet to care for them and spoil them up. They’ll be great mousers in return! ๐Ÿ™‚

I met my husband for the first time face to face on the exit ramp that is now down the road from our home. I lived in South Dakota for a year before I was sure I was ready to do this whole "farm wife" thing...(read more!)
