THE CATTERY |
|
|
|
 |
|
|

ROSE STREET, KITCHENER TILL FEBRUARY 18/2005
The cats have claimed exclusive rights to the walkout basement which includes a small vestibule, large central room, smaller room with laundry under steps to main floor and a full bathroom - which I never get to use in privacy. Obviously, I could not live on the main floor and upstairs without any cats, so there are a priviledged few who allow me to reside with them. The garden room was taken over for my computer room and has a huge window overlooking my rockgarden, so it's very difficult to keep the girls out. Any overnight guests get to share the spare room with cats too. In the main cattery, the queens and kittens are given free range during a day and an evening shift, and the males get to run together all night long. I'm very fortunate that most of my males are non agressive, and they all get along extremely well together. |

This is my latest model of cage design. Kittens love it as a play station, and I have trouble keeping the adult queens out of it too. It could also be easily converted into two separate cages by slipping in a 1/4" floor of melamine. |

Niagara Falls as of February 05 Not as easy to get clear sharp pics, as I haven't figured out the flash, and there's too much natural lighting here. |
