A redneck moves from the trailerhood to the suburbs for a little patch of dirt to call home and set up an as much as possible self sufficient lifestyle. Some things will go better than planned, others worse. Hopefully, most will at best be somewhere in between.

Pawpaw's Pussycats
Well, I've gad a bit of a rodent problem around mi casa. Bella, my dachshund & Vlad, my Jack Russell terrier are doing their best to kill the vermin inside but I needed help around the perimeter.
I went online and posted want ads in all the local pet sites asking for a Siamese or Siam mix young cat or older kitten. After at least 3 months with no replies, God answered my request.
First, a young lilac point Siamese or mix showed up at my doorstep looking for vittles which I promptly provided. Soon thereafter a young lady of about the same age showed up who looks like no other cat I've ever seen. She has the face of an Egyptian Mao cat, a ringed tail, spots on her sides and almond shaped markings on her legs. She is the friendliest of the lot but least often seen. Anyway, the lilac seems to be of breeding age as what appears to be her identical daughter has arrived, some 8 weeks old, I'd reckon.
I'm calling the older lilac "Biscuit" and her wee one "Dumplin". The wild ass looking cat is "Cornbread".
Cornbread is the only one who will let me pick up or even touch so far but with my natural animal magnetism it won't be long before the other girls are in my lap!
