I loved reading this thread,and seeing how beautiful your cats are.My Monty's tail is just like Cole's.Curling.Especially when Monty gets that burst of energy every night and runs around like a cookoo with his tail turned.It's a real Hoot.
That porch looks great for them to enjoy for a couple minutes every now and then in the winter.I do the same with our new screened in porch.But I get so afraid they'll want to go out all the time so I cut it short. Poor babies.But,there are Fishercats in my yard sometimes and they EAT cats!Among ather preditors.But I would never let them out-out.The screened in porch we have even has a locked door with a slide bolt near the bottom.(just a wee bit paranoid.) )And we stay with them for the fresh air event.
I know...Way to over protected.
Your babies look so happy and we know how lucky they are
Thanks for sharing their story.They really are lucky cats.
