Let’s take a look at the cats; welcome to another Caturday at the homestead.
Poppy on the deck, looking her usual grumpy self, Porcini in front of the camera:
Sleepy cat:
The alien orange cat, Pumpkin, has been hanging out in the shelter quite a bit this week, waiting for the food to dispense:
Here he is arriving in the shelter when Poppy is already there:
Poppy expressed her displeasure at the arrival with some hissing and swiping, which Pumpkin ignored:
After both settling for a while, Pumpkin defended the shelter from raccoons:
The two raccoons:
Then they settled down again:
When the food dispensed, Pumpkin was first there again:
Still the same morning, Pumpkin was in the shelter when the gray alien cat, Paladout, arrived:
Orange vs gray cats:
A screenshot of the cam viewer app on my iPad, showing Paladout in the feeder, Pumpkin on the deck, and Poppy in the shelter:
When more food started dispensing, Paladout started freaking out; he wanted to run away, but the entrance was blocked:
Not happy:
After a few minutes standoff, Pumpkin lost interest and went back in the shelter, allowing Paladout to leave:
Pansy, the indoor feral cat who lives in the back of our workshop:
Porcini watching a bird, while another is in the feeder:
Bella on the deck and Poppy next to the house, both watching a taunty bird:
When feeding the birds, I flushed both Poppy and Porcini out from the grasses under the bird feeders, and they ran to under our deck:
