All strays except the late BoBo and Jasmine whome we bought.
The rest were strays we found on the road or near our home.
Not all of them are still living. They are all neutered or spayed. Well fed fat fluffy house cats who are not allowed to roam outdoors at all unless we are right three with them in our own fenced in back yard. Too many huge alligators here on the coast. They do attack. Biggest one in this neighborhood was 11.5 ft long, chasing neighbor’s dog in his yard, not fenced in. He lives on a lake. Lake Jackson is basically a swamp like Houston.
I lived in Clute-Lake Jackson with my grandmother for a couple of years. My niece and her family still live there. Small world.
