Iris came to live with us in our new home at the request of a friend. Iris used to be the barn cat at a large Equestrian Boarding Facility. She was hit by a car, and my friend spared no expense to save her. She went through surgery to repair a hip, and months of rehab. Afraid that she would again venture out onto the road, she asked if we would take her with us to our sanctuary of seclusion and few roads. How could we say no. Iris is now Queen of my outdoor feline village; a benevolent and wise ruler :)
