Meet Charlie my soon to be 10 year old barn cat. I have a confession to make. I never really liked cats. They can be so independent, and moody! So this story begins nine years ago. It was August and I was visiting the Beckedahl family in Fort Collins Colorado. Mackenzie, the oldest daughter had a wonderful little cat named Gracie. (Yes, I actually liked this particular cat.) On the second day we were visiting Gracie gave birth to a litter of kittens in the bottom drawer of her dresser. Gracie was so proud! It took me the next two months I to decide if I was mature, and responsible enough to take on the life of another being. The rest is history.
Charlie has been an indoor cat most of his life. It wasn’t until the recent move that he has been able to be an indoor outdoor cat. (The first fenced in yard with out coyotes, and fox dens within 100 ft.) Needless to say he is adapting well!
