Hello! I am quite allergic to cats, but two kittens wandered to our land about ten months ago. One of them didn't make it and my two year old daughter fell in love with the other one. He is an AMAZING hunter. He brings me several mice, rabbit, and other rodents each week. He has befriended our two poodles, one toy, one miniature and now uses the doggy door. I was apprehensive at first thinking he would bring other cats to the house, but rather he shoos them away quite fiercely. I am very pleased with this smart lil fella...he earns his keep, he gets to stay as long as he'd like! :)
