Mother and Child Reunion

ZZZ… zzz… ZZZ…

[Editor: This is Ringo in the front and her son, Income, in the back surviving the cold weather. Ringo is the smallest of the cats, and in the classic cat pose with straight from legs, Income is a full head taller than his mom. They are on an olive drab wool blanket that is at least a half-century old.

Remembering the Sun

It will be back, right?

[Editor: Excise from late summer of ’08 because it is cold and miserable around here, and Real Life is being really time-consuming. Everycat is hiding someplace with as many as want to join, and they all want to be in the center.

Neighborhood Watcher

What’s going on?

[Editor: This is CC on her towel in her window watching people working on one of the apartments. I’m surprised anything came out as it was taken in very low light, and she is behind a window screen. She “talks” to me every time I go by.

In Memoriam
RIP Vinnie, NTodd’s tuxedo tom.

She’s Back

That doesn’t look like food.

[Editor: Lucrezia has been hanging out at a neighbors, but they have moved, so she’s back eating with the “family”. Actually she isn’t nearly as hostile and skittish as she was as a kitten, and the look is more puzzled than concerned because it was near “dinner time”.

A Rare Event

Just stop it!

[Editor: Getting all three of them, Property, Excise and Income [in the back] together in the same frame almost never happens any more. Income’s eyes are even open so you can see the gold color. It didn’t last as Excise realized that his sister was in reach, so he did and they exploded off their perch.

For Ellroon, who watches all squirrelly things.

The “Old” Man

Harumpf… Harumpf.

[Editor: This is Blaze, the alpha tom and largest of the ferals. He has a rakish scar over his right eye as a result of his early attempts to assume the position. He’s in for some cold nights because the alpha tom doesn’t have any friends to cuddle up to – it’s part of the job description.

Remember the words of Sergeant Phil Esterhaus: “Be careful out there.”

Bad Crowd

Yo! Buzz off!

[Editor: Wild Blue is not at all happy to see me. This is a definite change in attitude since s/he started hanging around with the two gray and white kittens…

Kitten Sitting

Who’s that, Mom?

[Editor: The two gray and white kittens belong to this momma cat, but the kitten still sleeping is Wild Blue, last seen sleeping on the edge of door. Wild Blue’s mom is out and about.

An Uninvited Guest

Huh … hello?

[Editor: I was wondering if Property was just playing mind games staring at the back door, but I looked out and found this un-cat chowing down on the cat food. It is either a juvenile or small female.

Wild Blue… Yonder

What was that?

[Editor: This little guy was asleep on the edge of an old wooden screen door when I finally got a picture of him.

Friday Ark is still at sea.

Curses, Foiled Again

Amateur!

[Editor: This was an “ambush” shot. I saw Excise jump into the chair to annoy his brother, and just snapped the picture without any real prep, but he beat me again.
