I only met Norman the other day, I'm disabled so drive past his house but he was in the Doctor's. I asked him if Misty was being a nuisance and he told me about the tapping on the window and buying her cat food.
I think some people have 'mug' written on their forehead in invisible ink that only cats can read.
I think she gets away with a lot because she is small. When she first arrived I thought she was 4-6 months but the vet said about a year. She is still only half the size of the other cats around here.
I have two 'cat crossings' one across the front of my house that you can actually see, it is so well worn by the various cats. The other is at the back and is a right angle, from the fence to the shed and then down the path.
I'm sure I could write the cat equivalent of a soap opera.
There are:
Misty - my little lady
The cats next door who consist or Tigger2, sooty, Tigger's other kitten and 2 refugees, one is a manx, all female.
Thomas - the stray ginger and white tom who is possibly the father of all the other cats who were not fathered by Snape. I feed him in the garden but he has taken to sneaking into my bedroom and hiding on the windowsill behind the curtains.
Snape - not been seen for a while, another stray tom, completely grey plush fur,who is probably the father of sooty and possibly other cats in the area.
Hermione - a kitten who moved out, she was an almost apricot colour.
The black and white cat that lives at No4 and does not associate with any other cats but does go under the fence opposite and probably has kitty adventures there.
The other cats using the crossings
2 torties, one is dark and ginger, the other is what the americans call 'calico'
Another tabby who looks like a giant Misty and hates Thomas, the feeling is mutual, they do that face to face slowly walking round each other thing.
Another stray ginger and white, possibly related to Thomas, is never seen at the same time as Thomas but is thinner so they are not the same cat.
