- Same here. We have ten cats; fortunately we also have 30 acres for
- them to get lost in. Most of ours found us; summer rejects from
- the student population when we lived in town. They accompany us
- when we're hiking through the woods, usually whining all the way.

- A straight friend I've long since lost track of once asked me if
- I knew of "those little old ladies with lots of cats"? I said
- yes, I suppose I did. "You're getting there," he said.
