the summer.

The
polydactyle is named 'Polly' by Pam and 2 Paws by me. She was found by a
hunter in a drainage ditch in the middle of no where. She was brought into the vet clinic
and I took her home that afternoon.
The polydactyle grey kitten also
has a Zero on him.

Candy
Our latest rescue, she has been
bottle fed.
Now was call her the 'World's Cutest Kitten" or
'Worlds' for short...Candy just didn't stick.
These two kittens
really have a story. The dark tortoise shell was following Bill around when looking at
this place buy. She was REALLY crying and desperately trying to keep up with him thru the
tall grass. He couldn't just leave her so he brought her home. We named her Marcie
cause she was so starved and thin and her eyes were huge like a Marsupial.(sp) She was
with us for 3 years and got hit by a car last summer. She is in the shade garden in peace
now.
The grey tortoise shell next to her, that is her sister, found 2 weeks later. Her story -
Pam and I were out on a Harley ride and I just had this NEED to go look at the farm they
were thinking of buying. So, after a long ride around the back roads, we ended up here (at
this house). I immediately went to the barn (for some reason) and heard a faint 'mew'. I
listened and stood still and heard it again. It was coming from the hay loft. I went up
the narrow stairs into the dark loft and saw something dart across the floor. I yelled at
Pam to come help. Then, this thing went darting past me...and splat..(doesn't sound too
nice...but this thing was moving) I stopped it in it's tracks. Picked it up and
YUCK...PEUUUUWWWWWWWW. This was a skeleton of a kitten that smelled like a dead cat. Well,
I put it down because it smelled so bad and it ran off to the other side of the barn. Pam
and I talked; we heard or saw no other cats around. We went after the kitten again. Picked
up some trash and underneath it was the stinky kitten lying in it's dead mother (pile of
bones and fur). We just couldn't leave it. By the next day it would have died by the looks
of it. So, 13 miles from town, in my BRAND NEW leather jacket, tucked safely inside, this
smelly skeleton of a kitten went home. She got a bath and slowly we began to feed her. She
is with us still today and ironically, has returned to her original home. Her name is Harley.

Nermal is in the back...he has a whole different story!
Kola Bear is another manx female.
This is princess. She has a long story behind her but, basically, she
was a kitten at Prairie Village (tourist place here) and someone (we do
know who from the log in books) smashed her foot and locked her in box
then set stuff on top of the box so she couldn't get out. Another tourist
heard her and rescued her. I then took her home, she had all but 2 toes
amputated and she and grown into a beautiful cat. Thanks to the help of
Pam from CA, another passing traveler that wanted to take her back to CA,
her surgery was financed.
