10. Here is my setup for 8 feral kitties that I care for.

I work with a local cat rescue "Together We Save" who does TNR (Trap, neuter, release) so as to help curb the feral population. Around here (southeast Michigan) there are many homeless babies that deserve love and a place to go to escape danger and get something to eat. After they are "tipped" they get released back in the same place they were trapped. So I ended up having a giant rescue operation with ever-evolving supply, maintenance and operations issues, but it's all good they deserve to have a good life too. I do this because i care for animals and the planet they live on despite the cost and personal time involved. Make all lives a little better!
