The Cats' Basket

Being a cat on The Fat Ewe Farm is really easy. You even get your own basket in a tree, away from the dogs and other barnyard critters, so you can rest in peace. Here Jane is catching a nap in the mid afternoon during a light rain. She has enough shelter from the rain to curl up comfortably and stay dry, while the farm goes on around her. Jane lost her four kittens to something unknown last week. Jane is the kitten of Sally, the original sisters who came to live on the farm in 2011 during its inception. Jane caught a mouse and gets along well with the dogs, so she got to stay, while her mother allowed herself to be tossed around like a rag doll toy for the dogs and has since been rehomed. It appears that Jane is dreaming of holding her kittens in his photo. Barbie, the other farm cat, has 6 babies just a few days old. They are protected by a cage over the opening of Ofcharka's dog house, where she chose to give birth. So far all the kittens and mom are doing very well. Wouldn't it be adorable to see the cats and kittens in the tree basket together?
