Well, I guess I better finally post to this thread...
This is Chester, one of two cats. He's my mouser and shop buddy. Very loyal guy, sleeps by (on) my feet most nights.
He "came with" the house we bought from my Grand parents 6 years ago. He was here when we moved in, but not Gramdma's.
We figured neighbor's cat, but the first rainy winter he was cuddled on our porch...no home. We started feeding him and talking nice. The rest is history. 😄
I'll put up some pics of Oliver our (mostly indoors) Orange Tabby later.
He's a sweet lap cat!
PS, Ya, he ate this one whole 😕 Most often stops about the entrails with the bigger rats. How do they do that! Yuck!! LOL
