There are days I wish I could draw, because this is comic strip material.

Picture: LBK scratching a tree. Caption (in old-time typewriter letters): Food available, but you must let yourself be seen.

Picture: Tuxie peeing on a tuft of weeds. Caption: Food good, service unreliable.

Picture: Tiger rubbing face on doorstep. Caption: DIBS!

Love, Columbine

You and RICHARD should team up. LOL

LBK wasn't even here last night, let alone the other two cats. It was a cold night so now I'm wondering if he does indeed belong to someone and they kept him indoors. He's been sleeping off/on in the shelter I put outside. If the tuxie is the same one as before, s/he's really friendly but I've only seen the tiger once. I sure hope everything is ok w/LBK.

LBK just showed up for his breakfast, so I fed him, of course, and put some warm cream in another dish. Guess what he went for first? I wish I could've gotten a close up of him w/cream splashed all over his face. He looked adorable! I feel so bad watching him eat, though; every little sound makes him jump and he whips his head around to see what's up. Tough life for outdoor kitties. I wish I had an unlimited budget. No creature would ever be hungry, cold or afraid ever again.

Ok, I'm now officially worried. Coco Puff had his attention fixed on something outside the kitchen window and when I looked, LBK was in a submissive position b/c the tuxie was arched, tail thick and ready to strike. At one point, LBK rolled on his back and the tuxie crouched over him but didn't strike. S/he slowly walked away and LBK stayed there. The tuxie is big, fully grown; LBK is a little guy, looks to be under a year old. He'll get the snot beat out of him, especially now that I see he's submissive. Actually, the tuxie isn't really a tuxie, I think; s/he has the markings of a Holstein cow, so I don't think it's the same one that came around this summer. Sigh. Let the games begin.

Every area needs one.

I closed mine when I bought this house 5 years ago but I'm wondering now if I'm going to end up opening another branch. No sign of LBK since breakfast.

I couldn't agree more or wish more that I was too on an unlimited budget to help these little creatures.

Thank you a million times over for helping little LBK I hear there's some bad weather heading your way. You've given this kitty a place to find refuge from the elements and there's no doubt he'll be back to fill his tummy and take shelter.

Groucho is sending you lots of purrs and kitty kisses for helping his fellow kitty in need.

A neighbor called today to tell me that LBK had been killed, they she saw him in the road at the end of our street but it wasn't LBK after all. Apparently, there were two black kitties roaming the neighborhood. LBK showed up for breakfast shortly after her call this morning. Whew!

Oh no. RIP Other LBK. I'm glad your LBK is safe.
