🙀🙀Oh dear! Cats on a hot tin roof! Poor little Minnie. Must be moggie mating season ?!
 
We've had cats for 49 years and never let them roam at night, except in our backyard.
Cat owners should keep cats inside at night, not have them wondering the neighbourhood😾
We always kept all our 🐈‍⬛🐈‍indoors at night. Once the babysitter let our pure Russian blue out. In December she had a litter of 6 black and whites. Just like the Tom next door.🙁

Not a good day for me. I think Michael Jackson is one of the most influential performers of his time (Beatles, Elvis, Madonna and Jackson), however, I had never heard him referred to as 'The King of Pop'. His music was definitely R&B.
