Cat madness!

Cutest. Army. Ever.

wow.
could they be clones??
this is maggie.
possibly separated at birth??

Mackerel tabby coloration is actually the ancestral condition and the piebald gene is both dominant and frequently expresses in that sort of bib pattern. So it’s not so unusual to get that kind of match. Ollie ( aka Oliver Cromwell, Lord Protector of the Commonwealth ) has a couple of “twins” on the SDMB for similar reasons.

Er…and sorry if you already knew all that and were just making a fun comment. Kneejerk pedantry is a curse ;).

Yepper, I’m fairly sure personal spike strips would be frowned upon since it’s a state road.

The Cage.
I don’t recall the expense, not terribly bad. It’s about 6 x 6.5h x 30, with 2 x 4 framing, 1 inch (?) holed heavy wire. A hand built door on the back side. Kitty doors in the well house window and door. Partially covered roof with metal siding sheets. Shale for flooring. Won’t be doing that for the next one, and may go back and pour concrete in this one.
Time consuming, Yes.
Injury causing, Yes.
Learned from our mistakes, will be easier next time.

Sounds like a very cool idea. I might have to try that at some point. Sure not sure where in Texas I’ll be moving to, but the right locations have enough land and a decent enough climate that I could let the cats outside in an enclosure like that.
