How many cats do you have?

[Prairie Purrs]

(Someone once told me that I am a "single woman of a certain age, with too many degrees, too much yarn , and too many cats. So I guess I qualify as that "crazy cat lady".)

Substitute "too many books" for "too much yarn" and I'm right there with you!

Hey at least this way I do not have to explain how much I spend on yarn to anyone else but myself (It makes it alot easier to justify buying some of the stuff!)

5 were planned editions to the house, the last 3 (littermates) were supposed to be fosters, but are part of the family now.

Until my Dusty passed away in 2007 I did have a total of 8 in the house though.

To be honest 4-5 is a better number for me, but we manage with all 7.

I forgot to answer my own poll!

I have 5 cats, with 3 fosters. I've got a new determination to see my two babies find homes.... As much as I adore these kittens, I know they need to find their own homes. My coworkers were telling me this afternoon how out of control 5 cats are. I beg to differ on that one - 5 cats are perfectly sane and easy to care for.

But I fear I'd be leaping into cat-crazy-lady territory with 7.... once I hit that number, I seriously think I wouldn't care anymore just how many cats reside here. It'll always be "What's one more?"

My coworker said the news cameras would come and drag out 30 cats and I'd be yelling "But the litterboxes are all clean!" And he's RIGHT.
