oh my! 5 is nothing (after having 11 for 20 some years<g>).
the vet bill aspect can be an issue when the whole crew is
elderly at once, but my 7 are more spread out in age now, with
the eldest at 20 (she has feline dementia, but is very healthy
otherwise) & the new kitten around 4 months old.
4 are indoor only cats (Muse,the 20 year old, Faucet, the
deaf cat, Bran & Fog the kitten), one is indoor/outdoor, Gee
<hard G> (we rescued her from someone who was going to
euthanized her for peeing in the house. they let her out &
she's used to it, so...), & the 2 barn cats, Rudh & Fianna,
who only come in in extreme weather or if we have a predator
around.
