Here Kitty, Kitty...


I was sitting in the house talking to my husband this past Friday and out of the corner of my eye, something caught my attention. I did a double take and exclaimed, "What is that in the chicken coop?!"

I jumped up and ran to the window...take in mind, we have had varmits and my very own dogs kill my chickens of late. I peered out the window and watched...Yep, definitely something small and furry in there. "It's a PUPPY!" I yell and tear out the door.

Upon reaching the coop, I realize what I thought was a puppy is a white and orange kitten. 'Oh great!' runs through my head, my husband HATES cats...or so I thought. I pick her up and this poor pitiful face with green boogered eyes looks up at me and quietly meows. THAT'S ALL SHE WROTE BOYS! I sweep her up and carry her back into the house.

Since then, her eyes have cleared up, she has put on weight and has been named Rosabelle. The kids absolutely love her and she them. I caught Chad playing with her the other day and am absolutely amazed that he allows her to come into the kitchen and sleep at night in a kennel. What was even more shocking is that this morning when I went to let her out, Chad had already let her out.

So, now we are proud owners of 4 dogs, 1 foster dog, 48 chickens, 15 guineas and 1 kitty cat. Talk about a funny farm...
