I am so mad and disappointed in Paquito

I am now rethinking if Katie's disappearance was of her choosing or if she was forced to relocate thanks to Mr. Paquito. Last week she came back and I was trying to lure her into the mudroom but when I was unsuccessful I went inside to bring her some food. When I came back outside Paquito was chasing her off the property! 

He made me so mad I wanted to spank his behind but he knows when he has pissed me off and stays away. He did the same the following day and since then I have not seen Katie anymore. The good thing is that I know she has other houses that she frequents and that feed her.

Her two now grown kittens are still here even though both Paquito and Nico bully them but they are not budging. We have had some strong winds and chilly temperatures in the area so I made Katie's kittens a "cucha" with an old pillow and a pair of flannel pajamas. Had to wrap old rags on half-gallon milk containers to keep the cucha's from flying off and them not getting too cold for the cats to snuggle next to.

During this cold spell, I partially opened the door to the mudroom so Nico and Paquito could spend the night out of the elements. I placed two cardboard boxes covered with old towels and of course, Paquito chose the bigger box leaving my little fat boy Nico in the smaller one.  I do not know what is wrong with Paquito...grrrrrrrrrrrrrr!

After MIA for three days Katie is back

I was going to write a post about Katie being missing since Friday and being concerned that she had met up with foul play from a raccoon, snake, or stray dog. What was my surprise when at noon I went to change the water in the boy's bowls and there she was as though nothing had happened.

Went to get my binoculars so I could check her out from afar as she won't let me come near her. She looked fine no bites or visible marks on her from what I could tell. Her cats were happy to see her. I wonder where she spent the past three days? Who fed her? I know she like Nico have other houses they frequent but she rarely left the property.

Saturday I even cut through some bushes and pulled out fallen tree limbs on the other side of the property fearing she had somehow gotten trapped. Walked all around in my rubber boots (I do not have snake-proof boots) calling out for her. Well if anything at least I got some yard work done.

P.S. This is ridiculous I have two blogs and while I thought I made a mistake on the last one by posting on my main blog it happened once more. I am certain I was on the Walter's World template and it again wants to post on Terlingua Dreams...grrrrrrrrrrrrrr!

Blogger needs to address these problems that I did not even know I had. It might be nice to also fix those links on our Reading List that does not take us to the blogs we desire to read without taking us to another page to de-direct to that blog. It is also taking HOURS once you make a post for it to show up on your reading list or on the people who have you on their sidebar.

Global Cat Day

Global Cat Day on October 16th raises awareness surrounding non-lethal feline programs across the country. More than any other shelter animal, cats and kittens face euthanization at a much higher rate.

My boys and Katie got extra cat treats today. They celebrated by doing what cats do...they slept 😽

I apologize for how this post looks.  I accidentally made it on my other blog but caught it just before I was about to post it.  I proceeded to copy it here but ended up with this. 😕

I have no idea why Blanca has been coming around...

Saturday around noon I heard loud meowing coming from outside the kitchen door. There is a white and beige cat that has been coming around and that Paquito does not like. For new readers, Paquito only has one eye but he does not act like it, that is why I am so protective of him even though he can be a bully and like a typical cat does whatever he wants.

What was my surprise but that it was Momma Cat Blanca...Paquito, Nico, and my late Rudy's mother...who after they were about 16 weeks old up and left them for me to care for as she went on her merry way. The good thing is that I got her fixed prior to that so she would not bring me any more kittens.

Paquito is the spitting image of his mother that is why I thought he was a girl until I took him to the vet when either she injured his eye because she did not want to nurse him anymore or he ran into one of the many prickly plants in our West Texas desert backyard.  Another difference is Paquito has one blue eye while Blanca has yellow ones.

I immediately broke up that future fight and brought him and Nico into the kitchen for their own protection. I wish I could have brought in Katie and her two offspring but as I have mentioned before they are strays and afraid of me even though I am the one who feeds them daily.

I fed her so she would leave but she ate very little and hissed at me and the other cats...Blanca, you are an ungrateful cat!

This afternoon she came again hissing and wanting to fight but this time I ran her off and again brought the boys in. Why is she coming around?

Though whoever created this meme misspelled "apologize" it reminded me of Paquito when he was a baby and Blanca was a good mother to her kittens.

Unsure about Katie

Katie has been missing all day and I do not know why but I think she might have given birth to her new brood. All three cats Paquito, Nico, and Katie are overweight. The last time Katie was pregnant I never saw it coming as unlike some cats she does not expand sideways but carries them on her lower abdomen.

I am not saying she is pregnant but she is overweight. It has been a while since she has gone missing and she rarely skips a meal. Only time will tell.

My fat boys and the smaller cats have been getting a lot of exercise lately. The annual migration of snout-nosed butterflies is in full swing and now some medium-sized yellow ones have also made an appearance. They have been chasing them all over the place.  

Some afternoons I sit under the cover of the back patio as our temperatures are still in the high 80's to low 90's during the day and just watch them run, climb trees, and play amongst themselves.  In some ways, it is therapeutic and relaxing.
