Let them think what they want to think.

Crazy cat ladies are great!!

A crazy cat lady lives down the road from me, she and my wife have conversations about everything -- cats, grandchildren, birds, quilting, flowers, gardens, books we are reading, books we have read, history, philosophy. She has a special little homemade flag that she hangs on the post under her mailbox to signal when she is baking chocolate chip cookies, I watch for the flag. She lost her husband about six years ago and now she shoots groundhogs with his .30-06 rifle -- blows them to pieces.

She has 8 cats who live in and around the house, garage, and barn. She feeds a few neighborhood ferals and cares for ferals that are up for adoption.

She also has four peacocks who get along fairly well with the cats except for an occasional hissing and squawking complete with the male peacocks spreading their tails.
