Cat update for week ending November 16

26 Caturday pictures today, from 111 captured this week.  (Does saying the number of the pictures in the post put you off reading it? Too long, didn’t read? Though not much reading required; easier to skim through a bunch of cute pictures than paragraphs of text. You can ignore my comments if not interested; I just like to add a bit of context.)

Pumpkin has definitely made his home in the cat house, spending most nights and much of the day there. But sometimes our ferals go inside, too:

Here’s Pumpkin with one of the twins in the feeder:

And Pumpkin by the cabin:

Three cats:

Bella by the cabin (with another inside, not visible here):

Pumpkin on our deck; it looks like he may have been sheltering from the rain under our tarp-covered furniture in the gazebo:

(I don’t show our house very often; you can see why we call it the Yellow Cottage. The three hummingbird feeders are visible, if you look closely.)

Pumpkin looking very chill, and a twin again:

About to jump on the camera housing:

Cabin snuggles:

Pumpkin and Porcini; she wasn’t pleased to see him:

Pumpkin looking cute:

Another shot of our deck, this time with Porcini emerging from the gazebo:

She then jumped down off our deck next to the cat cabin:

Doing my morning rounds, I saw Pumpkin under the cedar tree. He sat there as I walked past and took his picture, then he ran off:

Next time I see him up-close like that, I should try to interact with him in a cat-approved manner (crouch down, slowly blink, flick fingers, talk softly, etc), to see if he reacts more like a pet cat or a feral cat.

Pumpkin and a twin (probably Pommie) at the cabin:

(Too many Pumpkin pics? Let me know.)
