Actually you are right he does belong to one of my neighbors.
He is a big bad boy who comes through my yard from time to time.
He and Samantha do not get along at all!
He is the only cat in the neighborhood who has laid a paw on Samantha.
The two of them got into a fight by our front steps one summer evening a few years ago.
He took a chunk of fur off Samantha's butt when her back was turned on him.
He is the reason that she hasn't been allowed outside without supervision since then.
(Where was Tubby when Samantha needed him to protect her!)
He seems like a nice enough boy, he did let me pet his head and he has a big manly meow too.
His owner's house is for sale so he may not be around the neighborhood much longer.
