This is next door's cat -- in fact, they have three identical black kittens -- and this one actually came into our porch on Thursday night!The rat traps that we have had out for some time now have finally come to fruition - Friday morning there was a rat.

And this is the ever lovely Special K -- grooming my hair for me!

You have been busy!
Those are some nice looking birds for your freezer. It is amazing that they turn so many different colors. I hope to add some more meat birds to my flock come spring so I can put some in my freezer.
Hows your roo doing with the leg problem?
