Thanks everyone for the wonderful comments on my gang and to respond back to a few of yours.
TJ is a pistol. He has a wonderful personality. One minute he is a love bug with a purring motor that is incredible and the next a terror on four legs.
Tanzie we call the "Hussy". On her side is markings that look like an "H". She was part of the failed fostering group (FFG). As babies to help socialize them to touch, I combed and brushed them daily. Now when you touch her, she rolls on her back, spreads her legs, hence the hussy, and wants her tummy combed or brushed.
Ray Ray is named for my deceased dad. He loves to be loved and loves you back. When you pet him he has to lick the whole time. He and Slick, from the FFG, have hip problems and walk with a small hitch.
Shelby the one tuxie, does have a very unusual face. She is not a social as the rest and she has her own spot that is hers in the house.
I do have a thing for tuxies and black kitties although looking at my gang, I guess you could say for just about every type of kitty.
The o/w guy and the tortie are Brody and Amelia. They are siblings. They both were feral but I can now pet both of them and infact can pick Amelia up and hold her. Amelia will hopefully go this week and be spayed.
Between the two colonies, there are around 25 to 28 of them that I feed daily. One colony was another ladies and I would just help her out, but she has left that responsibilty with me. It takes me at least 1 and 1/2 hours a day to feed them. If anyone is sick, I trap and take to the vet. I actually had a little tuxie left in my main colony and thought he had an infected foot. I scopped him up easily into a carrier and took him to the my vet. Well, he didn't have an infected foot, he had a tumor. I paid $220 to have that removed and boarded him until the humane society had room for him. I think someone knew he had this and didn't want to fix him so just put in my colony.
My local humane society has cut me a deal and I can spay/neuter for $50. The lady who you makes the appointments knows me from seeing me weekly at Pets Mart and talked with the vet and that is why I am getting a discount of $20 per cat. She also knows that I did have one aother colony I cared for daily for almost three years. Unfortunately we believe that someone may have poisoned them. They just disappeared 1 to 2 at a time over a couple month period. Animal control here does not capture any cat with a clipped ear so they didn't do it. Plus they had my name and phone number in case there were any problems with the public. I still go by everyday just in case and to whisper a prayer for them.
I believe these babies God's blessings and it is up to us to help take care of them also along with our fellow brothers and sisters.
