contemplation

As i sit here knitting and reading Ravelry, i am thinking.

i watch the cats walking past the window to the 'drinking bowl' water garden and wonder how their lives would be if i had not adopted them or had not let them move in.
Right now Lusitania could be the pampered princess of someone else. She could be a strictly indoor only angel with all her needs met. instead she has her garden and i try to keep her treats on hand. My little rock star Robber would probably ended up as a barn cat since he was afraid of every thing.

Dash and Oliver would still be in that parking-lot and most likely dead by now, Buttercup would be total feral instead of playing with the crew.
Gabrielli and Lakota would be unwed momma cats if they still lived Gabrielli would probably not have survived kitten hood. and my darling Mikael who was so sick as a kitten.

right now with the economy as poor as it is my plans are behind the timeline for moving them all north to what my Mother refers to as the prairie it is 20 acres of land where we plan on building a house with enclosures to keep the cats safe from the coyotes that already live there. I want to start my Bible garden in something more than bonsai and i do have a start on the rosary garden with OGR roses i even have a St. John's rose.

on Ravelry i saw a post for this, http://www.fiberfarm.com/2009/09/a-mighty-big-giveaway
and i wish i could enter but i am not in a space right now to care for them as they deserve. Now if i was already up north on the prairie i would soo enter the contest. then i could look into getting an angora bunny or 3 and start fiber farming to help supplement taking care of the kitty sanctuary.

Good luck to who ever wins they are super cute
