A couple minutes away from Chershire lies a small market dubbed the Shire Market. A couple stores have been built here for the humans convenience however behind the little strip mall are tall silver cans of garbage and waste not wanted by the store owners. Many a cat has eaten their fill from here however the store owners are not at ll tolerant ad will not hesitate to throw out an unwelcome feline- literally.

A couple metres away from the barn is a small coop where the farmer keeps his chickens. An indoor shed offers protection during the night while a fenced in area outside lets them be safe during the day as they peck around for seeds. Be warned: unlike the rats, the farmer will mind if his chickens are killed and a similar fate might await any cat he catches.

Inside the woods it is calm and tranquil, a lovely place to sit alone and think. The woods are large and spacious and the dens foliage provides both cover and warmth for the strays who live here. Humans are rarely seen and when they are it is only along one of the few paths that wind lazily through the woods.

The hilly slopes rise up to meet with the Bell Mountains which form a neat semi-circle at the edge of the valley. The mountains are rocky and contain much less foliage than the wooded hills. The openness can leave one quite cold, at risk to the wind and altitude. But the vantage point as one looks down into the valley makes it worth it.
