Put some items on freecycle and one of them as a book. A lady requested it and I told her to pick it up last night. When she came round I answered the door but was guarding it in case Asteroid decided to bomb towards it - as she does. Obviously, looking a little odd I felt I had to explain why I was half standing half crouching!
The woman said "oh, we have eight cats." And then went on to say they'd had two, got another and had litters of kittens. Found "good homes" for most of them and kept two kittens - and all five cats got pregnant at the same time. They then kept another three cats. I asked if they were spayed now and she said yes. Guess I have to be grateful for small mercies.
When I told her I had four altogether she said "you're like me then."
