Mooch Fan Club update
It's been awhile since I brought you fan club members around the world
up-to-date on the life of Mooch, our resident stray. He has now survived three bitterly cold Canadian winters, eating up to five catered meals a day on our veranda and sleeping in a heavily padded and blanketed chair equipped with two heating pads. Now it's summer, and this year for the first time we've provided Mooch with a summer bed on the veranda - a smaller chair that's still padded but minus heat. He sleeps there every night, and rises for the first of his meals promptly at 5:20 am every morning, then leaves to do his business. The newspaper arrives around 6:00, and after it's dropped off Mooch returns for his second breakfast. Noon is time for his lunch, and his final meal is just before dark, In the warm weather one of us always sits a few feet from him, protecting him and his food from hungry neighbourhood cats, raccoons and the occasional skunk. In the winter we stand guard at the den window facing the veranda. One of the reasons for Mooch's survival is his caution. He's known us for almost four years now but his rule is still "feed, but don't touch". We prefer it that way. We know that a cautious stray is a safe stray. I call him stray. I'm not sure if that's the correct word, because now he's one of the family. We hope he's with us for many years to come. If you wish, next Mooch mealtime I'll pass on greetings to him from you and your kitties. http://www.flippyscatpage.com/moochtwo.html http://www.flippyscatpage.com/moochsecurity.html http://www.flippyscatpage.com/merrilymooch.html |

Every day is a treasure with Kenzie; I try to treat them that way. There will only be so many, and then there will never, ever, be any more.
