There were some people in Jupiter when I was growing up that had a place in Costa Rica & went down there every year. They would bring back all kinds of cats. They had a panther named Squeaky. They had to jump through hoops even back then (60's & early 70's) to bring them into the country. Squeaky had a chain link cage that took up their entire back yard & the top was all chain link too. I got to see & pet Squeaky. Jupiter was still very small at that point in time & everyone still knew everyone. Their kids were friends with my sister & brother so we got to go over & see the cats. We were instructed NOT to wear any perfume b/c it made her go crazy. So we went quite scentless. They also had 2 or 3 Ocelots, a jaguar & I don't remember what else. The local butcher kept busy providing them with chicken necks & other parts. The smaller cats lived in the house, all over the house. It was something that's for sure.
Uh oh, someone is dropping off orphaned eggs & hatchlings now. This could become a regular thing. Yikes!
Melanie, by spring you will overfloweth with flying critters in different stages of development.
I am a strong believer in the simple fact is that what matters in this life is how we treat others. I think that's what living is all about. Not what I've done in my life but how I've treated others. ~~ Sharon Brown
