Cat update for week ending May 30

On this week’s Caturday, camera replacement, Poppa, Rory cameo, and sunshine.

The camera inside the cat house stopped recording, so I slid open the rarely-opened maintenance door to investigate it:

I couldn’t get it to work, so I swapped the cat house camera for the spare one that was previously in the old chicken coop. Here’s a closer look at the camera enclosure:

The cat house cam is mounted upside down on the ceiling, so here’s the view just after replacing it:

I then told the camera to rotate the view 180°. Here’s a cat looking at the cam:

It’s hard to tell, since the inside is symmetrical, but that picture is actually horizontally mirrored; I forgot that I also needed to un-mirror it to get the correct orientation.

Here’s Porcini and Pommie in the cabins, visited by Poppa:

After a while, Pommie left to go eat or something, and Poppa went into her cabin. Here’s Pommie returning to find it occupied:

A few minutes later, Poppa emerged; he’s such a big boy:

On evening rounds, Rory spotted Paladout on the path to the duck house:

Hard to see in that picture; here’s a closer look at Paladout:
