These are general photos of cats in groups. These are just standard daily life incidents around the Retreat
BirdiesThe 8" window sill in the kitchen makes a great observation post.
BirrrdiesssHere are four calico sisters bird watching the pigeons outside the eastern window in the office. Two of the sisters unfortunately died during the panleukopenia epidemic in the spring of 2023.
Growing kittens eating in the OfficeAs the kittens grow and are allowed to roam in the office, they're taken off kitten food and fed like the rest of the residents. The larger calico is Seabee and she's supervising the kittens' table manners.
Kitchen CrewThe main window in the kitchen is about 8" wide and creates the purfect spot for sun puddling and street watching. The south facing window provides sun almost all day long.
Kitten MadnessWe had two of these kitten playpens donated to the Retreat. The pens worked fairly well, but all the adult cats wanted to jump in and also roll around.
Our M&Ms boxYou have to grant it to the Mars Corporation; they make great boxes. Here three youngsters cram themselves into a box made for two.
Relaxing in Mr H's OfficeMr H's Office is used as a restricted movement area for cats who had medical restrictions or for cats who did not especially get along with others. Winston had in-out privileges but Jeremiah was limited to the office.
Sabrina and WinstonSabrina is a very fussy and standoffish cat. She did not apparently mind crawling on top of Winston to find a place to nap.
Stare DownStella and Linua are two cats with chronic conditions who are generally restricted to Mr H's office. Both cats are lap cats and demand pets when Mr H comes in and sits in his chair. Linus in this photo is staring down Stella, telling her she's used up her allotted time in the lap.
