[Editor: Since the weather turned nice, Ringo spends almost no time inside, even to eat, so she depends on the fare at the feral feeding stations. What looks like saw dust is actually the dropped dry flowers of the camphor tree. Everything gets covered with the flowers and the yellow pollen. It is an improvement over what happens to the tree’s purple berries after being processed by hordes of robins.]

“… actually the dropped dry flowers of the camphor tree.”
And the streak through the middle of it, presumably made by the cat’s passing through it, is known as a (ahem) “camphor trailer.”
Ringo looks sleek and happy.
Ringo is sleek but neurotic. She belongs in a Woody Allen movie. [“Camphor trailer” – gahhh!]
With warmer weather here even Robyn has been spending time out in the sun. The nights are stillpretty chilly though.
We had a little dip in temperature last night, Jams, but she still wants to be out there, spending most of her time laying on the roof to maximize her sun time, and playing “gargoyle” if something interesting happens on the ground.
Awwww! Ringo looks like she’s happy, even if she has to eat feral kitty food. Your description of her roof activities is great! I hope she stays friendly.
OWL, she’s always friendly with me, it’s her “kids” she doesn’t like.
