One of the Alley Cat Allies prizes was a book called "The Cats Of Lamu." I love reading about and seeing photographs of other feral cats, especially historical colonies such as the Lamu cats. Or, you know, the Hemingway cats. The Polydactyl Hemingway cats are so wonderful. I'm so happy that Florida made us proud and is allowing them to stay. The more widespread knowledge on feral cat care becomes, the better life can be for all colonies everywhere.
Speaking of Hemingway cats, there is an adorable little Key Lime Pie boutique in Mount Dora, Florida. Everything in the store is Key Lime Pie related -- from flavored sodas to candies to cookies to barbecue sauce. They have these little Florida Keys Key Lime Pie cookies and the Hemingway feral cats grace the bags. I think they're the neatest thing.
The above photograph is one of our La-Z-Boy colony cats meeting a local raccoon who dropped in for some food. The raccoons, opossums, people and cats can all live together in utter harmony and yet, people find it so hard to live amongst one another. Not to mention how often humans fail at living among nature, too. I think we can learn so much from cats, and all animals.
