Lots Of Cats

We like cats. Unfortunately our cat passed away about a year ago. We've thought of getting a new cat but then discovered that our daughter Dawn was allergic to them. She had asthma symptoms occasionally that disappeared after the cat was gone. We eventually noticed the relationship. Fortunately just before we were about to get a new cat. We prefer Dawn to the cat. We do, however, still like cats. We now take small doses of cat. The occasional cat met on the street, friends cats etc. We enjoyed the recent visit to Don Bradners house and visiting with his cats.


We are also enjoying our visit here at the Redwood Acres Fairgrounds in Eureka, California. There are, of course, horse barns here. They are rented out to people to board their horses all year. There are about 47 cats, we're told, hanging around the barns that are taken care of by the people with the horses. They've all just been dropped off but found a good home. What's really odd is that they are all friendly. As you walk around there, they all need petting. It's tough work, but someone has to do it. Unfortunately, there are a few skunks that hang around as well. We try to be sure to not to pet the black cats with white strips.


There are also other things around the barns as well. Horses, A pig, and a few gardens.
