Elvis is becoming a bully / A day of cat naps

Elvis is becoming a bully and is not letting Katie eat though I have set up different feeding stations for both. What pisses me off is that she is becoming subservient to his wishes.  If she eats in one he runs over to push her away and starts eating and vice versa.

She will not come to the mudroom unless I leave but I have to leave the door cracked so she can enter and that is when Elvis tries to rush in and I am not having any of that. Why is she so afraid of me? I had the same problem with Tammie the stray dog...I could never gain her confidence...yet one day the telephone guy or was it the cable guy came and she ran up to him wagging her tail!

Katie is nursing and she looks so thin and worn out.  I put a new bowl of water just for her and her two kittens under dad's car. Today was in the triple digits like in the past couple of days so I added ice cubes to her bowl as well as the other bowls I have for the boys in different shaded parts of the yard.

Katie has a bunny tail as does one of her kittens


All of them enjoyed a nice nap though I could not find Nico...he is a loner now that Sonny is no longer with us they were very close :-(

A napping Paquito thankfully not in the street but in the yard.  He is sporting his new cat collar.



Elvis is just a mess he is still with his rashes.  He decided to make the former stray dogs' water bucket his new cucha.



Here is the new momma taking a break from her brood.

How did I miss this?

I have mentioned how fat Paquito, Nico, and Katie were getting on several posts going back months.  I was outside two or three days ago when I saw Katie under dad's old car.  That is nothing new as that is where she naps during the day.

I was wearing my old glasses but I said to myself...why does she look so tiny?  I walked closer to the car but when I bent down my head started spinning...darn vertigo!  It was just her.

Later in the afternoon, as I walked to the back yard to feed the cats I saw two kittens about five or six weeks old one with a bunny tail like his mother but when they saw me they went up under the car carriage.

When did she have her babies?  How did I miss this?  The last litter she had was well over a year ago. I had begun to believe that the neighbor had taken her to be fixed.  You know she did not only have two kittens...I am waiting for the other shoe to drop.  Rob, if you are reading this...your saying came to mind..." the gift that keeps on giving" :-(
