Well, we currently have 14 cats in the house - we did a 'rescue' a few years ago - we got tired of the feral cats in the neighborhood having too many kittens. So we trapped them all, got the adults fixed and released to be 'placeholders' in the area, and got the kittens all fixed, medicated, etc... Some were too sick to save and we lost three. Two took almost a year to get over severe eye infections. The adults were brought back in a year later after the neighbor kid was caught shooting at them with BB gun - while they were in our yard!
We already had four of our own, but lost one at 22 years old, too. My Abyssinians (brother and sister) lived to be 21-1/2... We've had lots of cats in the past.
