17. You're so lucky to have room for all those animals!

[font color="navy" face="Verdana"]Or rather, those animals are lucky to have you.

I'm in the city, with an enclosed driveway for my "garden," and any more animals are out of the question per the landlord. You can see a bit of the fencing and the fiberglass enclosure in the picture with Asher. That's to keep the cats safe in the yard while still allowing them outside to chase bugs, lay/play in the sun, and watch activity on the street.

Of the 4 cats that live with me, 2 were found as kittens and brought to me by neighbors, 1 was an adult stray I'd been feeding outside the enclosure that decided to move in one night, and most recently, Asher "appeared" inside the enclosure in May. He was just a kitten and couldn't have gotten in by himself, so someone had to put him there.

Like you, I'm a sucker for cats, and for all the same reasons.
