Our neighbour, Jay, who moved to the next street just over a year ago had a black cat with a bung eye. It has returned twice - the first time when she was on holiday and she came and got it. We have seen Bobby a few times over the fence and he looked well fed and contented and she decided to leave it here.
As rain is forecast Doug decided to make a little house for Bobby.
I just hope that Bobby uses it.,
The best cats are the ones that find us, rather than us finding them. They come (and stay) for a good reason.
ReplyDeleteApart from Kath and Kim (who we got from the SPCA) all our cats just turned up. I don't think either of these two will become indoor cats.
DeleteA cat roaming around like that is a death sentence for so many birds and other small creatures.
ReplyDeleteDavid, this is why Doug started feeding them, on the premise that a well fed cat is less likely to hunt and it does seem to be working.
DeleteThat is what our neighbours did for our cat who didn't like young children..but with a roofing felt roof. He sat on top when dry and inside when wet..when he wasn't in front of their fire!
ReplyDeleteKim has gone, so there is a cat shaped space..which has obviously been filled!
update on today's blog
DeleteIf I were I cat, I would deffo use Doug's wee house. :)
ReplyDeleteIt seems popular right from the start but the settee is comfortable and larger.
