PROSE – RANDOM THOUGHT
For months, I’ve refused to acknowledge ownership of the feral cats in my house. Yes, I realize what I just said, allow me to explain. It happened several months ago when one showed up pregnant looking all cuddly and whatnot.
There is a considerable amount more to the story and I tried to end plain the particulars to my lady. She gracious listened and asked the following question.
“Do you feed them?”
“Yes.”
“Then they are your cats.”
I started to protest, because their obvious factors she wasn’t considering. Her eyebrow raised, she gave the look that every woman gives their man when he being ridiculous. I relented and went to pick up some kibble. They really love the salmon and rice stuff.
Is it really that simple?
When it comes to cats, maybe not that simple, but she’s right! Because you feed them, they would struggle to survive without you. Thus, it is not right to leave them to fend for themselves. 😸 Congratulations on your new pets! 😻

Cats own us.
The SF author Robert Heinlein said that once you adopt a cat, or are adopted by a cat, you have a responsibility to it.
Good luck!😃
