I laughed-- you are like us-- but be careful! If you make them too cozy and give them too much food, they may reproduce more. I am not sure that making them a shelter and keeping them locked in, with all the comforts and food of home, is such a good idea. You may literally end up with

I highly recommend a teaspoon of Nutri-Cal or Vita-Cal twice a day. It boosts the calories, and most cats eat it by choice. You can also increase the fat in her diet by adding high fat supplements (like those made for good coats and skin) or Feline Missing Link (which I use myself with great
