- I challenged myself to take at least one photo every day this year. Now I already take A LOT of photos, but honestly it's been sort of a chore many days. Most days I just do the same boring stuff and, right now, I spend hours babysitting kittens every day...as you will see. Here is January...

- The past 10 months of my life have been very busy, all because of this lovely cat right here. She was born feral in my neighborhood a couple of years ago (story continued in post) Mother of Cosmos 12" x 12" Acrylic on wood
- This past March she gave birth to her first litter on our back porch. Four kittens, three boys and a girl. We commited to making sure her kittens wouldn't end up feral like her. After 9 weeks of working to ensure the kittens were all healthy, they were adopted to loving homes. (Continued)
- The next step was to get her spayed. We failed. She was feral and smart. She got pregnant again, and I started working with her to make her comfortable with people. I got to the point where I could safely pet her. Unfortunately, we didn't catch her before she gave birth again. (Continued)

View full threadMama cat was spayed last week and she's doing well. She's back outside and coming by multiple times a day to ask me go for walks with her. We've already been on several short walks today. As I finish it typing this, I have one of her kittens snuggled up next to me, paws on my left wrist.
