Bud wants to know

 
if you think he'd look good in a wide brimmed hat.


I worked on Petey's shelter today and it now has a full 4x8 roof including a good sized overhang to keep rain out.  I used corrugated plastic sheets, can be cut with a jigsaw, and ran then groves at an angle to shed rain and snow.  My brother cut a door in a Styrofoam box for him and once I pick it up, I'll pad the inside and add the new one.  Still concerned about his vulnerability of being in a small box with one opening, but it's the best way to keep him warm.  The large plastic bins work well but still need an interior box and overhang to keep it dry.  I am hoping the shelter could accommodate two boxes.  Bud spends a lot of time there and I think he would enjoy hanging with Pete.  We shall see!! 
 
Somehow, I received a ton of comments from July and August through email today.  I had an issue with not receiving emails but fixed it, maybe these were the ones I missed but why now?  Just to confuse me?  Make me think it's still summer?  Didn't work.  But we did have a beautiful warm day.  Mark added gutter guards from Amerimax called Hoover Dam.  We had high hopes, but there are already leaves stuck in its wire.
 
November is a few days away and all I can say is, we're getting closer to summer.

WOW! That is optimistic comment and I love it.
You are too good to your furbabies. I saw on FB that today is National Cat Day :)

Your compassion is so inspiring. Thank you for caring for these cats.

Don't tell Bud it makes him look fat! LOL Just Kidding. If Bud and Petey hang out together, they will probably go into house together. You are such a good cat mom! A lot of kids don't get the love and care you give to your furrballs.

Our barrels are about 2 feet in diameter, and hold one cat each. The little igloo style dog house is about 2 1/2 feet in diameter and holds 2 cats IF they get along very well.

Bud looks more like a fedora hat kitty to me.

I've been having the captcha thing popping up again the last few days when commenting on blogger posts, no clue what they're playing about with behind the scenes. Again.

Hi Marly,
What a cute picture of Bud!! Tell him I think he would look good in anything, but I also think he is more the black fedora type!! Love your idea of the shelter and I hope both kitties will take advantage of it as the weather turns!!
Hope you have a great week!
Heart Hugs~

I think Bud's hat suits him very well. Tell him he's a dashing kitty. I'm so glad he and Petey are getting along. Maybe they can keep each other warm.
Maybe you should be in the kitty condo business. Hoping that Missy won't get involved in any altercations.
Thinking of you.
