Dan Ham the Cat Man?

Kitty Pictures.....Wow!!!!!

Well quite honestly I have never been fond of cats, with the exception of Blackbeard when I was in elementary school. I always thought a guy that liked cats was a little light in the loafers if you know what I mean. When my daughter Kimala decided to "dump" her 2 cats at the ranch a few weeks ago I can tell you we weren't all that excited about it but I figured cats were better than rats and mice so I said go ahead, but I wasn't going to go to any effort or expense to take care of them, they could go feral for all I cared. As a matter of fact I was gone on a shoot for the first couple weeks they were here and they survived pretty well totally on their own. As I sit in my rocker having my morning coffee or afternoon beer (and I'm actually petting Pumkin, she won't stay off my lap, maybe I shouldn't give her any more beer) I have been observing these felines and must admit they are gaining my respect rapidly. The fact they can stay totally clean while living under the house and eating vermin and birds, the way they stalk, their uncanny ability to balance on anything, man these things are cool. In the meantime I'm watching my black lab eat her own vomit and poop then come up and breath on me, or knock over the trash can  as soon as I leave  and distribute its contents all over the house. 
 Anywho Pumkin and Cupcake are now just another addition to the ranch along with a few kittens that poked their heads out from underneath the porch a couple days ago.


Cupcake and Clan

I promise not to include too many cat pictures on this blog, as a professional photographer it is just beneath me...... I think.

Meow! How many cats do you have now? Pumpkin and Cupcake are precious and I am glad they have adopted you! It is good to remember Blackbeard also.

You gotta catch up, I heard of a man in texas that had 200 all black cats in his house - the video was unbelievable.
