Life with our family from a bird's eye point of view

 

Cat Tales

Most of you folks already know that cats love birds, right?  Well, folks, this bird loves cats!!  Fortunately for me, they are not allowed to go outside (except Nelson did), but I sure do have lots of fun watching them from the big window!  I really miss all the talks that me and Critter used to have; she was always filling me in on the latest around here!  Be sure and check out her memorial page, as well as Mr. Nelson's.  I really miss him, too.  Each of the cats has their own page that tells how they came to live with us, and we have a few other goodies for you, too.  Just click on the links below, and thanks for stopping by!!!
