So Long

Is this thing shrinking?

[Editor: It is time for Income to stop growing. Property has been the same size as her mom for a while, but “I” seems to keep getting longer.

KT, Not QT

Your next step, is your last.

[Editor: There have been a half dozen ferals with these markings [this is KT-2], and not one of them has ever been tolerant, much less friendly.

Zoology

What is it?

[Editor: Leo and Medium Grey investigate a small brown snake lured out of its burrow by the sun.

[Update: Scientifically speaking, what they are annoying is a glass lizard, not a snake. It doesn’t have legs, but it does have movable eyelids and external ear openings. They are called glass lizards because their tails break off easily and regenerate – this allows them to escape from predators.]

I’m Not Evil

It’s only the black cats that are evil… well, and the fluffy white cats who hang around with evil geniuses… OK, so some people are nervous about calicos… I guess Ted means you have to include the tuxedo cats… but no one thinks brown and beige tabbies are evil.

[Editor: Ted is found at Poor Mouth , and he is proud to be listed with evil cats everywhere. Despite appearances Excise is more of a klutz that evil… I mean: is that face evil?  Really?  You think so?

KT – the Next Generation

Who is that, Mama?

[Editor: KT was shown two years ago, and earlier this month I featured KT-2. It looks like there’s a KT-3 joining the crew with Mama’s markings.

Curious & Crazy

You can release me, I’m not dangerous.

[Editor: CC [Crazy Cat] was hand raised by my Mother, and now lives with her neighbor. Originally named for her habit of joining you in the shower, she has had some world class cat fits. The neighbor has all of his cats on leads when they are outside.

Curiosity & Caution

What are you up to?

[Editor: This is juvenile tabby decided to watch me to see if there was going to be any food involved.

Waiting For A Table

Where’s dinner?

[Editor: This is KT-2, a juvenile. She isn’t senior enough to rush the food bowls, and has lost the immunity given to kittens. Like most teens she lays around and sulks a lot.

A Study in Grey and Green

You lookin’ at me!

[Editor: This is the grey kitten from last week. Just a little more light and a little more trust, and this would have been much better.

Faster Than Falling Food

Nom Nom Nom Nom!

[Editor: If you look behind this grey kitten’s right ear you will see a splash of cat food. She managed to intercept it as it fell from the spoon towards the dish.

Watching The World

When is the hurricane season over?

[Editor: This is an oldie because the ferals are hiding and the insiders are freaking out from the weather. They sense that something is wrong, and hide.

Dot-ing Eyes

You have to sleep sometime.

[Editor: I haven’t taken a picture of Dot is some time because she was very slow to recover from an infection and I haven’t wanted to stress her. Well, she has been beating up the other cats for a week and looks much better. Yes, I had to use the flash, because my place is dark. I have excellent night vision, and lighting increases the cost of air conditioning. The camera is the only thing that wants a lot of light.]

Blue-eyed Boy

What is that bright light?

[Editor: Excise absorbing some sunshine after our extended period of rain and overcast skies.]

Kitty Kamo

Ignore him, he can’t see us.

[Editor: Note that the tabby is behind the shredded palm frond, while the blue is confident of blending with the concrete. BTW, I’m not kidding, they really think they are hidden, and in a gray scale world they are, to a great degree.]

In Memoriam: Phinky of Ignorant Hussy has lost her friend, Lee.

Interesting piece on feral cats who were a bit older – 1.8 million years.
