    Our problem is that the dogs think they are human, and the cats think they are dogs...we won't mention the 3 chickens who think they are cats, and the ducks & geese. We sold our cows....no grass for them.
    Interesting group of critters. Where is Littlefield? I live in Schertz.

    I have 3 cats - all "adopted" while our granddaughter lived with us. Her "Grandma can we keep it" worked every time!

    We now use only pine litter. We have used "regular" clay, chrystals, and now the pine. Our old man (the cat that is) had taken to using the carpet instead of the litter box. He has not had an accident since. It smells better too.

    After years of having horses, goats, dogs, rabbits, parakeets, cats and one white mouse named Dinky, I'm down to two cats...Tessa (left) and Phoebe. Tessa will lie down on command and Phoebe will sit. I used to train dogs for obedience trials and couldn't resist trying with these girls. :oops:
