This is Beauty today. She is 6 years old. She came to me with zero coat, big mats, and scabs. Her coat is still healing, but it is finally healing! I am so happy. (Please ignore my unvacuumed rug.)

Sometimes, as a breeder, you need to make some hard choices. As a small sized cattery hobby breeder, I have to balance genetics and space, to keep all of my cats healthy. Even when I love the cat dearly, sometimes the BEST thing for the cat is to retire and live a wonderful loving retired life. But, I always, always, always chose the families of my retired cats with extraordinary care. I want them to be as loved as I have loved them.

About 10 years ago a family walked into a cat show and wanted to hold my big boy cat that I was showing at the time. That was the beginning of a long relationship with this absolutely wonderfully kind family. They now have three cats from me.

As I was considering neutering Jupiter, due to his close genetics, which drives my COI higher than I like (normally around 10% inbreeding for my cats) I decided to post a photo of him as availble on my site, thinking I would have time to chose his family carefully.

One daughter from this family fell in love with him. She was soon to be married and really could not afford him. She cried when she realized that he could not be hers.

After carefully checking with her mom to see if they would support her, and help if there was any problems, I decided that Kelly was the perfect person for Jupiter.

I could have sold him as a breeding cat to another breeder. But, I love that boy, and wanted the best for him. And giving him to someone that would love him so greatly stole my heart, and felt right.

So, Jupiter has a new family. Kelly and her new husband Eli have started their new life and new family with Jupiter, Joop Joop Hoola Hoop. Congratulations you two! Let me know if that redhead gives you challenges.😂❤️❤️

CATS ALLOWED TO ROAM
Written by: Janice R. Richard.
“As a rescuer, you have asked me to search and help locate your cat who is allowed to roam. He goes out after dinner, but he's always home before dark. Always. Until he doesn't. I have searched.

Sadly, I am now at your door with some very sad news. I have found......the remains of your cat. Since seeing this over and over, I can say he was killed by a coyote, as they are more plentiful in your neighborhood. However, could have been a fisher. They eviscerate their prey. Usually, not much is left to identify, but in this case, the face was clearly visible for ID purposes.

At this point, you are crying and in pain. Yes, I have compassion for that.... but if I am honest, my sadness, pain and pity is for your cat. It was the cat that had to endure being stalked and killed in a fairly vicious manner. It's rarely a quick death. Some cats put up a decent fight, but in most cases....the battle is lost. Imagine the terror they must endure. They are not aware of this danger when YOU let them outside and allow them to freely roam. Yet YOU are aware. You have to be. With all the education, postings, notices that are put out on all types of sites on Facebook and other social media's.... you have to be aware of that fact. And you still open the door.... and put them outside.

Yes, there are some cats people say that simply cannot be kept indoors. However. There are other methods of letting them out and keeping them secure. Catios. Harness, leash. If you yourself have a large screened in porch? Replace the screening with pet screening, add some enrichment for the cat, ie: cat tree's, toys, games.... You have now protected your pet.

GPS collars are not protection. Let me say this louder so the people way down in the back can hear. GPS COLLARS ARE NOT PROTECTION!! Do you think a coyote or fisher could care less if your cat has a GPS device around it's neck? Makes no difference to them.... I have found many collars in my time... break aways, and some ripped off. I have found "kill sites".

Coyotes, particularly, are living amongst us. We are encroaching on their living spaces/lands, so our backyards are becoming their hunting grounds. And, if we continually supply them with cats allowed to roam... well... the outcome could be devasting for those cats. And sometimes, you'll just never ever know what happened. One evening, they just never return again. No signs, no sightings, no nothing. Gone.

But sadly.... I am here at your door... telling you all this. While we are talking, your other cat runs past us to the outdoors. I look at you. Through your tears, you tell me, yes... she is allowed to be outside too. And after all I have just told you.... after all the tears.....after knowing how your poor cat was ripped apart for food.... you are still going to allow your cat(s) to roam. But you love them. Really??? Love is not allowing your animal to roam and become bait or succumb to any of the many dangers out there for cats. Love is doing whatever it takes to keep them safe. That.... that is love for your pet.”

And let me add to it, as a coyotes are not the only danger out there for your cat. There are cars, birds of prey, stray dogs, diseases… and people!
Keep your furry friends safe!
