Tony and Rocky have grown up into fine looking and healthy young cats. They’ve both been ‘fixed’ so that they are less likely to roam… but they still enjoy roaming the grounds and hunting for mice and gophers.
They both tend to bring a live rodent into the house on a weekly basis…. I usually catch them in a drinking mug, and release them outdoors.
Having cats around keeps the rodent population down…. mice aren’t an issue for our cactus, but gophers are, so having these fellows keeping the numbers down helps a lot…. I wonder if I can deduct food and vet costs since they are integral to our business?
Tony in particular seems to enjoy having his photos taken. He tends to hold a pose long enough to get good photos. When I’m on the terraces and he sees me, he comes to say hello…. a very friendly little guy he is
