Say hallo, to my little fren....more frenly pics, Post 60.

[RICHARD]

This is a pic of the stray that stops by for a bit to eat.

I have not been able to get close- I get hissed at!

But, she/he always shows up to lie down on the back porch for me to toss out a handful of kibble.

Maybe one day I can get a little scritch in?

[carole]

Aww Richard your little visitor is so cute, don't be fooled into thinking that hissing is serious, i remember my Nikki used to hiss at me before i rescued her, she is the biggest lovebug out, it is their defence mechanism, but then you already know that.

Maybe it is time your kitty had a playmate, any chance of that? lol

How can you resist those begging sad eyes?????and since kitty is a tortie i would say kitty is probably a girl, how purrfect is that? you can have one of each then.

[Karen]

What a pretty little tortie! We used to have a tortie in the neighborhood we lived in before we moved here, I used to call her the pizza cat, because whenever I was downstairs waiting for the pizza delivery, she'd appear.

[Medusa]

Aw, she's so cute but she does look scared. I hope you have success w/her, RICHARD.

[Barbara]

Tortie sure looks like a girl and I don't meant the scaredy eyes. She's so cute and I am sure she'll want to have contact.

[catmandu]

Aww what a Sweet Little tortie she really has such wonderful markings.
And I must ask , whether the edster would make a mentor tothat poor little cat , who i bet will calm down richard once she knows the You and the Edster love her.
Take it from me Richard , a little tuna works works wonders.

Richard,
What a cute little fren.
I bet one day that kitty will be your lap kat.

[cassiesmom]

Where are you, Fren? Come back!

[RICHARD]

NO sooner than I post, she came back.

She is very skittish and I have to spend some quality time on the stoop with her!

All is well!

[cassiesmom]

Whew, Fren! I'm glad you are back.

[RICHARD]

OH OH!

I think my leetle fren maybe having 'smaller frens'!
I looked at her a few days ago and she looks a little plump
thru the middle. She has also taken up running under our house again.
I sure hope she is have problems being 'of size' and not in the motherly way!


I also ran into another cat that I thought I saw once before, but now have seen in twice in the last few days.

It's a cream and white cat with a ringed tail. It's run past me once and I saw the rear end/tail up close......I have to put out my camera to try and catch a good photo!

[Karen]

Is she feral, or does she belong to a neighbor? Sadly, if she's a stray, it's far more likely she's pregnant than suddenly putting on weight right there.

[Karen]

Perhaps its time to put out some higher calorie food for her and the babies, so they are born healthy?

[cassiesmom]

Richard, have you seen her yet today -- do you think she's with kitten?

[carole]

Richard you can get some special pet milk that is really good for pregnant cats and nursing mothers, might be a good idea to give her some if you can.

Oh dear this little fren needs to be caught and spayed after the babies ,any chance of doing that?

I know it is a lot to ask, but any chance of that? do they have any trap and release programmes in your area.?
