At one time when I was growing up we had thirty two cats and kittens. 5 Siamese mamas, and four litters of baby Siamese, one litter of black and gray tabby. If we went away from the house their mama would go steal ALL the other kittens. We thought maybe she wanted white kittens.
My sister's friend had three orphaned kittens, one was white. We gave them to her and she quit stealing the others.
Earlier in my life than that, my parents tried raising parakeets. Dad built a huge cage and nest boxes.
After seeing Lady and the Tramp I dreamed or imagined that the rats were after the birds, which were in my room. I "saw" a big black rat. It was actually the big black industrial sized dustpan.
In that same time frame an airplane crashed in a field behind our house.
More nightmares and imagined danger for me.
Just thought I would share some random information tonight.

You really had many cats and kittens. One of my cousin has many, she lives in a large farmhouse and has arranged an old stable so that the cats can be free to go in and out, but they all have their bed to sleep and she gives them food very day.

That is a much better set up than we had. It sounds quite nice.

@GardenGerty I have visited the "cats house" (as she calls it), those cats are very comfortable there.

We all have random thoughts and information it might be fun to share. We haven't had a airplane crash near us. That would be really frightening.

Yes, it was frightening, and I was only four. Mom was pregnant with my little brother and my dad was the first one to get to the pilot. My parents just sent me to my bed and really did not take time to comfort me.

Wow,You once had so many cats and kittens ! I am often baffled by what happened in my dreams,which knocked together many things that I experienced or not.

My mother somehow thought that we could make money selling the animals, but that was not true. It takes money to care for them correctly.

Once mom won a sales contest and the prize was a registered Shetland yearling.

After being gone yesterday, one of @myklj999 's posts reminded me of the kittens. One about Emoci and the squirrel corn.

Too many. We had a hard time affording the basics for humans.
