Chester makes Ten!

I have blogged about Chester before...whom I just recently named...I would previously refer to him as the big white cat with beige circles and loud meows.


He had such a big neck that his owners placed a dog collar on him. He would come around every once in a while but he did have a home. A couple of weeks back he started coming around once more but this time he was thinner, his neck had a laceration, and he no longer wore a collar or tag.


My cats do not like him except for Muñeca (she likes everyone) and sometimes Bonnie MaeMr. Nicolás is definitively NOT a fan and neither is cat momma Luna. He is a peaceful cat and poor Chester is being constantly picked on by the other cats. He used to retreat with Bonnie Mae to the adjacent vacant lot (owned by me) but now he stays here. That is causing more fights among them but there is nothing I can do about that.

Here his left cheek is swollen but it happened elsewhere
 when he first started coming.

For those that are new to this blog, I need to mention that while the City of Del Rio has an Animal Shelter they do not take in animals from the County. The same goes for the two private shelters.

I have established rules and Chester seems to understand that he will be fed on the back porch while the others are fed on top of dad's old car (it takes longer for the ants to climb up there) and Nicolás is the only one allowed to eat in the kitchen.

I now have seven cats, two kittens, and Chester makes ten!

Meet Bonnie Mae's grand kittens!

Luna (formerly known as Barnabas) gave birth to two kittens on March 29, 2022.  They are 5 weeks and 3 days old and are growing up so fast. She formally brought them out of the old water heater closet two weeks ago. They are now on the porch by the kitchen door where I have placed a water bottle obstacle course so they have time to run and hide if some of the other cats want to get to them...but Luna is a good mother always looking out for them.


Luna was born to Bonnie Mae along with Muñeca, and Donald last March 2021. She looked at her grand kittens from afar and then had the gall to hiss at them! 😁


Luna is super dark so it is not easy to photograph her.


Since I do not know what gender they are I have not named them yet.


They have not warmed up to me yet just like their mother but I have to rectify that as she needs to be fixed ASAP.  You might be wondering why I have rocks in their boxes...because they are smaller than water bottles and it keeps them from blowing away with our strong winds.



Both kittens are extremely cute 💓
