Hey, remember how last week I told y’all about the new cat who has started showing up around here, and races off the instant he sees a human? I managed to get some pictures of him. They’re not the best, since I had to use my long lens through the (not very clean) windows of the side door, but you definitely can see how floofy he is.
Walking from the old chicken yard to the feeding station.
Checking out the bowl.
I’m itching to get my hands on him; I think he could use a good brushing.
Rolling around on the warm concrete of the driveway.
Fred tried taking a plate of food out to him, but of course the instant the cat saw him, off he went. He’s still not showing up at any particular time – his visits are random, and we might see him a couple of times one day and then not again for a week. It’s hard to tell, because of the floof, but I think he’s in pretty good shape. It’s possible he belongs to someone around here, but no one we’ve talked to knows who he is. So we’ll see if Fred can’t get him tamed, and go from there.
I think I mentioned that we’re calling him Fancypants, because he looks so much like our long-gone Mister Fancypants.

Naturally, as soon as I told y’all that Maxi has started spending a lot of time in the garage, she changed her ways. Now she’s spending her days…
…on Fred’s desk, giving everyone the flat, dead Tony Soprano eyes.
Pausing to give Fred the eyes of lurve.
“You tawkin’ to me?”
